  What happens when a person becomes more committed to the persona than the person underneath it? In this episode of The New Rules Podcast, Adrian Crawford and Bri explore the tension between authenticity, fame, identity, art, culture, leadership, and emotional pain. Using Drake, Justin Bieber, Sam Altman, Jay-Z, and Søren Kierkegaard as case studies, they unpack how people create personas to survive pain — and what it takes to create a life that truly matters. This conversation dives deep into: Why people dissociate from themselves The emotional cost of fame and influence Drake's "villain era" and what it reveals about modern culture Why responsibility is essential for growth Art as therapy, meaning, and legacy The danger of creating for applause instead of truth How technology, AI, and power reshape identity The role suffering plays in becoming authentic What it means to make your life a work of art Why slowing down and reflecting matters more than ever This is a conversation about becoming who you actually are — not who the world rewards you for pretending to be.

Shavuos - Becoming One with the Torah

In this episode of the Digital Rapport® Podcast, I share the personal story behind why I chose to help coaches grow their businesses instead of becoming a coach myself.After starting my career in the corporate world with companies like Tetley Tea and Sun Microsystems, my passion for personal development led me into the worlds of NLP, hypnosis, emotional intelligence, and life coaching. But one powerful conversation changed the direction of my career forever.I realised that many talented coaches struggled not because they lacked skill or passion, but because they lacked the marketing systems, technology, and business infrastructure needed to grow successfully online.That insight led me to combine my background in IT and technology with my passion for personal development — helping coaches, consultants, authors, and experts build scalable online businesses through funnels, automation, email marketing, and digital strategy.In this episode, I talk about:• How I got started in the coaching industry• The moment that changed my perspective on coaching• Learning from mentors like Janet Schweitzer and Ron Holland• The early days of online funnels and email marketing• Why technology overwhelms many coaches• Building systems that help experts scale online• Merging passion, business, and technology into one missionIf you're a coach, consultant, entrepreneur, or expert trying to grow your business online, this episode offers valuable insights into the strategy and systems that support long-term growth.#CoachingBusiness #DigitalMarketing #PersonalDevelopment #OnlineBusiness #Funnels #MarketingAutomationhttps://www.digitalrapportpodcast.com

What if the most important decision you ever make isn't about your career, your goals, or your next move — but about who you let close enough to speak into your life? EPISODE OVERVIEW In this episode, BRI and PAC dig into the Dream Team chapter from PAC's book Magnum Opus: The Art of Becoming One of One — a deeply practical, architectural look at the five people every person needs in their corner to actually become who they're meant to be. This isn't a conversation about having friends. It's a conversation about building a board. And the difference between those two things might be exactly what's been missing. KEY THEMES EXPLORED Why hyper-individualism is a lie we've been sold — the best leaders are built in community, not in isolation Proximity breeds intimacy: why online mentors and thought leaders can't replace people who actually know you The five Dream Team archetypes: The Encourager, The Truth Teller, The Covenant Friend, The Specialist, and The Wise Sage What it really means to have a Covenant Friend — someone who doesn't love your potential, they love your person The difference between knowledge and wisdom — and why you need a Wise Sage who gives generously without needing credit Why you can predict someone's future by who has access into their life — and what that means for the relationships you're maintaining right now Dating apps, courage, and what in-person vulnerability has to do with the kind of person you're becoming   WHY IT MATTERS You can't become one of one in isolation. Every masterpiece is shaped by the hands that had access to it. The people you let into your life aren't just your support system — they are actively shaping your ceiling. This episode gives you the language and the framework to audit your circle, fill the gaps, and start showing up as the kind of person worth having on someone else's Dream Team. CLOSING INVITATION Your Dream Team isn't just a list — it's a mirror. Adrian and Bri don't just describe these archetypes. They name them, challenge you, and make you feel every gap. If this episode made you think about someone specific — reach out to them this week. That's the whole point. New episodes of the New Rules Podcast drop every Wednesday. Don't miss one.

With Ben Domingue, Founder & Managing Partner of Family Office Partners Overview Louis Diamond speaks with Ben Domingue, Founder of Family Office Partners, on his move from UBS PWM to independence—why control became essential, and how building his own firm reshaped how he serves entrepreneurial clients.

Watch… https://youtu.be/OQHKoj_n8Y8 About this episode… Many advisors build impressive businesses within large firms—serving entrepreneurs by helping them navigate liquidity events, capital decisions, and growth strategies. But they're still operating within someone else's structure. And over time, a gap can develop between what you're advising clients to do… and what you can actually execute yourself. For Ben Domingue, that gap became a turning point. After more than two decades at UBS Private Wealth Management, where he built a $2B ultra-high-net-worth practice, Ben became increasingly aware of the tension between the advice he was giving and the constraints of the platform he was operating within. So he decided to leave and build Family Office Partners alongside Elevation Point—not to replicate what he had, but to design something different. A firm where he could “eat his own home cooking” and operate with the same level of control and flexibility his entrepreneurial clients expect. In this episode with host Louis Diamond, Ben shares what that shift really looks like, including: The decision to leave UBS—and why he wanted to not replicate what he had, but to design something different. The lessons learned in serving entrepreneurs—and how that transformed his own mindset and business practices. The limitations at UBS—and its impact on how advice was delivered, and solutions were sourced. The reality of “getting bigger”—and why it wasn't about scale for its own sake, but about building the capabilities his clients actually need. Choosing Elevation Point—and why they were the right partner for their independent firm. This conversation offers a clear look at what changes when an advisor moves from producer to owner—and how that shift can reshape growth, service, and long-term strategy.

Intentional Growth: How Top Advisors Build Businesses That LastStrong markets can drive growth, but durable wealth management businesses are built with intention. Jason Diamond outlines five practices top advisors use to create scalable firms designed to last. Diamond Consultants UBS Advisor Transition Report 2025This “firm-focused report” seeks to look under the hood at movement to and from UBS from January to June of 2025. Benjamin T. DomingueFounder | Managing Partner Ben is a Founder & Managing Partner of Family Office Partners, an independent multi-family office that works with founders, entrepreneurs, family offices, and ultra-high-net-worth families. With over 25 years of experience, he has guided clients with a range of complex needs while working closely with several members of their firm for more than two decades. Prior to founding Family Office Partners, Ben spent 20+ years at UBS — including 11 years in its Private Wealth division where he served as Managing Director and was among the firm's Chairman's Club advisors. He advised some of UBS's largest, most complex client relationships, specializing in private‐company ownership and significant liquidity transactions.¹ While there, he founded the Exit Planning & Wealth Consulting Group, coordinating with internal and external resources to address the complex needs of families and businesses, supporting over 40 transactions. Ben also frequently spoke on topics related to family wealth and the intricacies of private company transitions to other advisors and industry groups. His experience reinforced the view that solutions are rarely contained within a single institution, which led him and his partners to pursue a more collaborative, open-architecture business model focused on identifying the right resources, regardless of their origin, to best serve clients. Family Office Partners was built on that insight. For Ben, the firm embodies a model built around an expansive matrix of specialists who have the experience of addressing real-world challenges faced by founders, entrepreneurs, and families, especially those navigating the complexity of private company ownership. What makes this work most rewarding for him is the significant learning he has gained from the clients themselves, leaders, innovators, and stewards of generational success. And for Ben, the most humbling aspect has been their desire not only to achieve their own goals but to contribute to the success of the firm and other families in similar positions. Ben is married to Dana and has two children, Abby and Luke, both students at Louisiana State University. My commitment to clients goes beyond managing wealth; it’s about partnering on critical family and business decisions that shape legacies for generations. I strive to cultivate deeply personal trust, built on over two decades of shared experience and collaborative problem-solving.

Food is no longer just something visitors enjoy while they're here -  it's increasingly the reason they choose a destination in the first place. In this episode of TRENZ Unpacked, Michelle catches up with Elle Armon-Jones from The Big Foody, who has spent the past 15 years introducing visitors to New Zealand through curated culinary experiences across Auckland, Wellington, Christchurch, Dunedin and cruise ports around the country. They explore how food tours help visitors understand the deeper story of a destination, why Auckland's dining scene is having a real moment right now, and what international travellers are increasingly looking for when they book culinary experiences in New Zealand. Elle shares insights into emerging trends in food tourism, the growing demand for hands-on experiences like markets and cooking sessions, and why storytelling and human connection are still the most powerful ingredients in any visitor experience. They also talk about what buyers attending TRENZ should notice about Auckland this year - and why the city deserves more than just a gateway stop on a New Zealand itinerary. Plus, Ellie shares her top Auckland recommendations for delegates with a free evening between appointments. If you're heading to TRENZ - or simply interested in how food is shaping the future of visitor experiences in New Zealand - this episode is packed with inspiration. ______________________________________________ Powered by https://www.destinatenz.com  If you, or someone you work with has a great tourism story to share, and would like to come onto the show, please get in touch!

In today's conversation, I speak with Maia McCoy of the United States who is a rising star in women's sprinting.Born and raised in Tennessee, she attended the University of Tennessee where she was an All-American in the sprint events both indoors and outdoors.She likely popped onto many people's radars in 2025 though as she frequently competed on the international circuit at both diamond league and continental tour meetings, finishing the year ranked 14th in the world in the 100m and setting a personal best of 10.96 seconds.Prior to 2025 though you may have heard of her for representing Liberia where she won 100m silver at both the 2024 African Championships in Cameroon and African games in Ghana.But representing Liberia didn't work out and she is now in the process of transferring back to represent her home country of the United States.In our conversation we discuss Maia's transfer to Liberia, as well as the process of transferring back to the USA.We also break down that amazing 2025 season, finding a pocket of consistency, and becoming one of the top ranked sprinters in the world. She breaks down sponsorships, training under Coach Ken Harden at Auburn, the progress she's made in practice, as well as goals for 2026.⁠-------------------------------------------

Ever walked away from a conversation knowing you were right — but feeling like you just lost? Proverbs 26:4-5 shows the better way. At first glance, Proverbs 26:4-5 looks like a contradiction. One verse says, "Answer not a fool according to his folly." The very next verse says, "Answer a fool according to his folly." Skeptics like Voltaire pointed to these verses for centuries as proof the Bible can't be trusted. But Solomon wasn't confused — he was being complete. Two verses, two warnings, one wise framework for every believer who has to deal with foolishness in real life. In this message, Pastor Paul Chapman walks verse by verse through Proverbs 26:4-5 and teaches three things every Christian needs to know when a fool is in front of them: Don't sink to his level. Don't match his manner — his anger, his sarcasm, his mockery, his pride. You are not used to being a fool. He is. He will beat you every time on his field. Don't let him go unchallenged. Silence in the presence of someone who is wise in his own conceit only confirms what he already believes about himself. Left alone, foolishness grows bolder — in our homes, our churches, and even our nation. Let wisdom decide. Before you open your mouth, ask God for wisdom, examine your motives, consider the outcome, weigh the timing, and watch your tone. Tone is the wrapper around your message. Along the way we look at three Hebrew words the Bible uses for "fool," the powerful example of Stephen in Acts 7 (a man who said hard things and still died full of the Holy Spirit), and honest pastoral stories about the real cost of correcting someone who is wise in their own eyes. If you have been chewed up in an argument you never s

Happy new moon, everybody! Today we fly down to the hills of Calabasas, California, overlooking the Pacific Ocean, where I sat behind a microphone at a walnut desk across from the one and only Rich Roll. Rich went to Stanford and Cornell and was a national athlete in swimming before his career was cut short by a decade-long struggle with alcohol—eventually landing him in jail and rehab. On the eve of his 40th birthday, as he walked up the stairs he was left totally winded… and decided it was time to make a change. The next day, Rich overhauled his life. He switched to a 100% vegan, plant-based diet, grabbed his running shoes, jumped back into the pool, and two years later, fueled only by plants and after losing 50 pounds, he became the first vegan to ever compete in the 320-mile ultra-marathon and finished as the 3rd fastest American in the race. Are you kidding me?? He then went on to complete five Ironman Triathlons on five islands of Hawaii in one week! In 2012, he wrote his inspirational memoir ​'Finding Ultra: Rejecting Middle Age, Becoming One of the World's Fittest Men, and Discovering Myself'​, which became a bestseller upon its release. It's a fantastic book and memoir. I've read it. I loved it and can't recommend it enough. In 2013, he launched ​The Rich Roll Podcast​ which is honestly my favorite podcast on the planet. Rich hangs out at the edge of personal growth and development and offers deep exploration—what he calls "a weekly aural dance"— with guests like ​Yuval Noah​​ Harari​, ​Malala Yousafzai​, and, yes, ​even me​! If you know Rich this classic chat is a way to see him from a new side by learning about which books make him tick ... and if you don't know him yet, well, you're in for a treat. He's a gem and I think after the chat you'll want to keep hanging out with him on ​YouTube​ or ​Instagram​. Pull up an extra chair and grab a seat at our table!

The world is changing faster than most people are prepared for. AI is reshaping the workforce. The pressure is increasing. And a lot of people feel stuck trying to keep up. But the real issue isn't what's happening around you. It's who you're becoming in response to it. In this episode, we break down why toughness, resilience, and adaptability are becoming the most valuable traits you can build—and why most people are avoiding them. We talk about: Why toughness is misunderstood in today's culture The difference between toxic environments and necessary pressure How AI is creating opportunity (not just fear) Why confidence is built through doing hard things What separates people who adapt… from those who fall behind If you've been feeling stuck or unsure of your next move—this episode will challenge you. Because the truth is: The world isn't slowing down. You just have to become someone who can keep up.   Pre-Order the Book This episode continues our journey through Magnum Opus: The Art of Becoming One of One.

Connie Lanford from Louisiana is with us again today. This time we talk about the oneness of marriage. How do two different and unique people become one together? Connie shares about their challenges and difficulties but how God showed her His way.

Pastor Sarah Abraham, Bangalore, brings a powerful call for us to move beyond ordinary living and recognize the power of God already within them. She emphasizes the importance of becoming one with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit by rooting life in God's Word and truth. Through the transformation of John, the sermon highlights how intimacy with Jesus leads to maturity, consistency, and a true identity as His beloved. This sermon challenges listeners to reject guilt and the lies of the enemy and instead live in authority, reflecting Jesus in every area of life. Ultimately, it is a call to live as heaven on earth so that the world may see and believe.

Why are you really doing what you're doing? Most people can explain what they do. Some can explain how they do it. Almost nobody can explain their real why. In this episode of The New Rules Podcast, Adrian Crawford and Breezy unpack one of the most powerful principles from Magnum Opus — The Scalpel. The practice of asking yourself "why" isn't soft self-help. It's surgical. It cuts through performance, press releases, and public image to expose the origin story underneath. Because here's the truth: The first answer you give is usually a press release. The real answer lives in the basement. We explore: Why most people are terrified of their real motives The difference between curiosity and interrogation How shame blocks self-discovery Why humans compromise themselves just to belong What happens when you disconnect from your origin story Why integration work creates freedom And how asking "why" can literally bring you back to life This conversation is vulnerable, layered, and honest — especially around topics like mission vs. family, superficial desires vs. deeper motives, and the pressure to give socially acceptable answers. If you've ever felt like: You're performing instead of living You're successful but not satisfied You're disconnected from your deeper motives Or you're tired of giving "marketing why" answers This episode is for you.

About this episode  Bad bosses aren't just a workplace problem—they're a leadership pattern that can spread, normalize, and quietly erode culture. In this episode of The Future of Work® Podcast, host Daniel Lamadrid talks with Mita Mallick, a bestselling author and seasoned marketing and HR executive, about her book The Devil Emails at Midnight: What Good Leaders Can Learn from Bad Bosses. Together, they explore why bad boss behavior happens, how marketplace pressure and personal “earthquakes” shape leadership, and why hustle culture can reward the very behaviors that burn teams out. The conversation gets practical: how to give feedback when psychological safety exists, how leaders can run a weekly self-awareness check, why gratitude builds trust and retention, and how boundaries protect top talent—especially as work evolves with AI, hybrid models, and rising uncertainty. 

Today, we chop it up with one of only TWO Canadian Division 1 head coaches, Stonehill College's Chris Kraus. Chris has a deep lineage of basketball; his father was a coach at legendary Markham High School, and Chris followed the team around at a young age.  Because of that situation, it seemed like basketball was always going to be, and although Chris was involved in a bunch of sports he couldn't break the passion for hoops.  He excelled at the game and even found himself playing in the historical grassroots program alongside the likes of Denham Brown and Jermaine Anderson.  After a couple of attempts at pro hoops, Chris realized it was time, and he dove right into the coaching world. His story is great, and even took a flyer on how he started out! He now finds himself back at Stonehill, the same place he played and is having success while navigating the move to Division 1. A great episode for all aspiring coaches and hoop heads, tap in! #Canadabasketball #ahoopsjourneypodcast   Chris Kraus - Guest https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chris_Kraus_(basketball) https://x.com/CoachChrisKraus https://stonehillskyhawks.com/sports/mens-basketball/roster/coaches/chris-kraus/1324   Aaron Mitchell - Host Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/a_a_mitch/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ahoopsjourney/

Sucharita Kodali calls Walmart's (WMT) earnings “incredible” for a business of this size and maturity. “They're not only growing share but they're executing really, really well.” She believes they're benefitting from both ends of the K-shaped economy, possibly taking business from malls or other merchants. She thinks its rivalry with Amazon (AMZN) will continue to be a big story as AMZN beat WMT on sales for the first time. Its ad business makes it one of the biggest media companies in the U.S., she argues.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Our whole lives we've been told two competing messages: be unique, but also fit in; be original, but make sure you're accepted. So which is it? In this episode, we unpack the tension at the heart of identity—the paradox of being completely one of one while still being made of the same "frozen water" as everyone else.  If these concepts and ideas have inspired you to begin your journey toward becoming one of one, we highly encourage you to pre-order a hardcover copy of Adrian Crawford's Magnum Opus: The Art of Becoming One of One. Purchase the book today!  https://www.newrulescollective.com/product-page/magnum-opus-the-art-of-becoming-one-of-one You are unique, but you're not superior. You're human. And learning to live in that tension may be one of the most important leadership skills of our generation. Authenticity vs performance Belonging vs fitting in Personal growth and self development The difference between finding yourself and becoming yourself Identity in an age of social media Confidence without ego Leadership rooted in humility Purpose, calling, and self awareness Why most people cosplay uniqueness How to stop performing and start becoming   If you've ever struggled with:   Comparison Feeling behind Trying to stand out Trying to fit in Losing yourself in success Chasing approval Wanting deeper meaning and purpose   This episode is for you.

If you feel like the world is shifting faster than you can process… If you're exhausted from performing… If you know there's something deeper in you that hasn't fully come alive yet… This episode is your starting point. This week on The New Rules Podcast, we launch a brand-new season centered around one idea: Magnum Opus: The Art of Becoming One of One — your great work.  But not the kind you put on a résumé. The kind you become. In Episode 107, we unpack what it means to design your internal world instead of letting culture design it for you. As systems destabilize and predictability fades, the question is no longer, "How do I win the game?" — it's "Who am I becoming inside of it?" This conversation explores why so many feel misaligned and stuck in performance although it's exhausting, and how to begin the process of becoming "one of one." We introduce a powerful four-phase framework inspired by Adrian Crawford's powerful new book Magnum Opus: The Art of Becoming One of One. Echo – Discovering the inherited narratives, history, and internal patterns shaping you Chisel – Developing disciplines that bring your real self forward Fire – Integrating your gifts into the world with power and responsibility Work – Evaluating whether your life is producing real impact or just personal gain This episode dives into: How your internal world is being formed — whether you're intentional or not The mental and emotional cost of living disconnected from yourself How modern systems mass-produce performance instead of cultivating originality Why creativity feels rare in today's world The difference between being impressive and being integrated Why great work is formed in "little rooms" before it's seen in big ones How responsibility — not astrology, personality tests, or systems — shapes identity This isn't a "5 steps to success" conversation. It's an invitation. To slow down. To sit with deeper questions. To stop outsourcing your design. To take ownership of who you're becoming. Magnum Opus: The Art of Becoming One of One sets the foundation for a season focused on identity, leadership, creativity, and building something that outlives you. If you're ready to stop performing and start becoming, this episode is for you.

In this conversation, Jim Grisanzio from Java Developer Relations talks with Jeanne Boyarsky, a Java developer, an author, and a Java Champion based in New York City. Jeanne previews her JavaOne session, which will be a Hands on Lab for Java 25 certification. Previously, Jeanne was a guest on Duke's Corner in January 2024: Jeanne Boyarsky on Java, Learning, and Contributing. Preparing for Java 25 Certification Jeanne will be running a hands-on lab about Java 25 and getting ready for the certification: Becoming One of the First Java 25 Certified Developers in the World (or Learning New Features). The session will cover features added to the language from Java 17 to Java 25. Although the certification has not been announced yet, Jeanne is already preparing for it. "You can be one of the first people in the world to be certified if you come to my talk and learn about it and are ready when the test comes out," she says. The lab will walk through tricky questions and edge cases featuring new functionality, with coding practice to explore the features directly. Even if you are not planning to take the certification test, the lab provides a good way to learn about the new features. The session is designed for beginners with one to three years of experience. Top Features in Java 25 Several features particularly excite Jeanne. She highlights scoped values, which she describes as "a good jump from thread local in order to be able to share code in a nice, safe, contained way." She also appreciates unnamed variables and unnamed patterns because developers no longer need to use annotations to suppress warnings for unused variables. "You can just use an underscore," she says. Jeanne is particularly interested in stream gatherers because streams are one of her favorite features in Java overall. She was excited when stream gatherers were in preview, and now that they are officially released, she can use them in her job. "Nice that the excitement hasn't worn off, right?" Among the new features, Jeanne is especially interested in the new main method, as described in JEP 495: Simple Source Files and Instance Main Methods. "I'm super, super, super excited about the new main methods where you don't need a class and you don't need the whole static void mess," she says. This change makes writing code more succinct. Making Java Accessible to Students This change in how Java handles the main method enables new developers to learn Java faster. Jeanne volunteers at a high school teaching kids how to code in Java. In the past, teachers had to tell students: "Alright, public class foo, public static void. Don't worry about what any of that means. We'll tell you later." But Jeanne says that curious kids would ask what it meant, and teachers could only say that comes later. Now, students start with void main, braces, and IO print line. "It's obvious what everything does," Jeanne says. Void means it does not return anything, which makes sense to students. They can even use the Java Playground and start with just IO print line. When they move to the command line or an IDE, they only need the void main part without discussing the word class until they are ready to learn about classes and objects. "It makes their first impression of the language so much better, and it makes it so much faster and easier for them to get started," Jeanne says. She particularly appreciates the Java Playground because students do not need anything installed on their computers to start. They can write print lines, loops, and control structures, and by the time teachers ask them to install something, they are already invested in programming. "It's fun." Jeanne calls the Java Playground "awesome" and says it's a "really nice utility" even for experienced developers. She uses it herself for quick tests when she does not want to open an IDE. JavaOne on Oracle's Campus When asked about JavaOne, Jeanne describes the conference as moving to California last year, just outside San Francisco on Oracle's campus. "The weather was great, which is awesome because I live in New York City. There's snow outside right now," she laughs. The venue particularly impressed her. "It was nice because it was on Oracle's campus. You got a feel for it. It was pretty. There was a lake. There was a lot of areas to connect with people inside and outside." The conference was held largely in one building, with lunch in another building nearby, which made it easy to engage people repeatedly. "Even if you don't know people, the fact that they're at JavaOne means they're interested in Java. So, you can go over to anyone and introduce yourself." One of Jeanne's favorite memories from a previous JavaOne was meeting Duke and seeing her book in the Java bookstore. Advice for Students When asked for advice for students learning computer science, Jeanne recommends learning the fundamentals while using AI to help. "Rather than using AI to write the code, have it give you practice questions or do code review or ideas of projects," she suggests. Students also often ask what professional developers do daily. Her answer provides a realistic picture of professional software development. "Every day is a little bit different, but most days include a mix of meetings, working with my coworkers, code reviews, writing code, now with AI," she says. Problem solving takes many forms, from performance questions like "Why is this slow?" to security concerns about making systems more secure. A significant part of her role involves understanding what users actually need. "A lot of the time users ask for what they think they want and not what they actually want," Jeanne says. Through user interviews, she works to understand what they are trying to accomplish, which often leads to better solutions than what they initially requested. "So not just building what you're told is a huge thing, especially as you become more senior in your career," she says. The goal is to make users productive and happy, not just to code. Technology keeps changing, and for Jeanne, that constant evolution makes the work fun. She has embraced AI tools as coding assistants, using them for pair programming, generating tests, and suggesting next steps. When her team piloted coding assistants, they focused on choosing a tool rather than waiting for the perfect tool. "The important thing is to get a tool and get people going and using it and being more productive," she says. The learning curve is not high, and the tools pay for themselves almost immediately. However, Jeanne says that it's important to understand what you are doing rather than using AI to replace that understanding. "It's about understanding what you're doing and not using the AI to replace it because at least with the coding assistance, it's right 90, 95% of the time," she says. She talked about an example of asking AI to generate a regular expression while pairing with a junior programmer. The AI started writing it properly but then made an error. "I noticed it right away because I know what correct is," she says. After giving it another prompt with a hint, it produced the correct result. Without knowing what correct looks like, developers cannot effectively verify and fix AI-generated code. The AI Hype Cycle Regarding concerns about AI making developers obsolete, Jeanne is pragmatic. "I've heard that enough times that I'm a little skeptical," she says, adding that this is the third or fourth time some technology has been predicted to take all the jobs. Instead, she sees AI as enabling developers to accomplish more and make users happier. She has a big backlog "that goes on forever." She says it would be great if we could get more of it done and in the hands of customers. "I think we're at that phase in the hype cycle for AI where people are talking about AI like it solves all your problems, [but] it solves some of your problems. But because there's less acknowledgement of the ones it doesn't solve, it's easier to have that skepticism." When asked if AI represents a paradigm shift or just the latest tool, she responds: "Right now, I think it's the latest tool, but I do think we're going to get to the point where we're programming at a higher level."

For many new agents, the top producers in the office are intimidating. Their success feels out of reach; it's something you'll never accomplish yourself. But for some agents, those same people are motivating. They're proof that it can be done, and they become the standard to chase.  Emilee Mosso went from wanting to be like those agents to achieving success in her own right. And at 23, she's done $10 million in volume, and this is just the beginning.  How did Emilee turn her goals into a reality? How did she move past some of the places that keep agents stuck?  It starts with showing up before you feel ready, asking for help instead of guessing, and treating every “no” as practice for the next “yes.” In this episode of Level Up, the Century 21 Blackwell agent shares the mindset and approach behind her success. We also unpack how to learn from the right people, move through rejection without losing momentum, and develop the habits that make you a top producer.   In the beginning, you take the no's personally. Now, when someone says no, I just think I'm closer to someone who will tell me yes. -Emilee Mosso   Things You'll Learn In This Episode  Consistency compounds faster than talent How does showing up, especially on the days you don't feel like it, quietly build the kind of momentum that skill alone can't? The hidden advantage in rejection What shifts when “no” stops meaning you failed and starts meaning you're still moving forward? Why agents really fear listings Most agents stay buyers' agents, not because they can't handle listings, but because rejection from a seller feels personal. How do you push through that fear and build real leverage on the other side of it? The value of proximity How much faster can you grow when you surround yourself with people who've already done what you're trying to do?   Guest Bio Emilee Mosso is a licensed North & South Carolina real estate agent at Century 21 Blackwell. Emilee loves listening to people's needs in the real estate market to find a way to best serve them. Serving others is a passion of hers. She serves on the Spartanburg Board of Realtors Governmental Affairs Committee, the Community Service Committee as the Vice Chair, and the Public Relations Committee as the Chair. She is a founding member of South Carolina's Upstate chapter of Women's Council of Realtors. Emilee is also a member of Kiwanis International, where she serves her local Spartanburg Kiwanis club on several committees and as a board member. She is also a team holder for Alex's Lemonade Stand Foundation, a non-profit organization dedicated to fighting childhood cancer. Real estate was just a dream for Emilee at the young age of ten. When she heard her parents sharing their criteria, she quickly discovered Zillow, and a real estate fire was lit inside of her, and she has worked to make it come true. Every day, Emilee strives to help someone with the buying or selling process. In 2022, she was awarded the Quality Service Award for her dedication to her clients, as well as the "Rising Star" award.
