We've eaten our way around the 2026 EPCOT International Food & Wine Festival, tried a LOT of dishes, and shared plenty of opinions along the way. Now we're taking everything we've tasted and using it to build our perfect Food & Wine meals.We're each creating our own six-course dinner using items from around the festival, with one pick in six different categories: drink, soup or salad, appetizer, side dish, entrée, and dessert.The catch? We made our selections separately and didn't share them with each other before recording, so we're finding out each other's picks right along with you.Will we end up choosing some of the same festival favorites? Will we completely surprise each other? And when we put all six courses together, will either of our menus actually resemble a meal that makes any sense?Along the way, we'll revisit some of our favorite dishes from this year's festival, debate a few of the standouts, reveal the items that just missed our menus, and see just how difficult it is to narrow an entire EPCOT Food & Wine Festival down to only six selections.So grab your imaginary reservation, pull up a chair, and join us as we serve up our perfect six-course EPCOT Food & Wine meals!
Saee Pansare started her career not in software but in a lab, studying food engineering and imagining a future developing flavors and ingredients. What she discovered instead was that she had the instincts of a product manager all along; she just happened to be building physical products. After stints at Kraft Heinz, Amazon, and Whole Foods, she landed at DoorDash where she now leads the DoorDash for Business charter, building group order and large order systems for corporate clients. In this episode of Products That Count, podcast host and Chief AI Product Officer at Boston New Technology Shweta Agrawal sits down with Saee to unpack what food product development taught her about software PM, why she believes domain expertise beats technical background when switching industries, and how she navigated the trust-building challenge that every career changer eventually faces. In this episode, we cover: (2:08) Saee's path from food engineering undergrad to MBA to product management (4:33) What a food engineer actually does, and why it looks a lot like software development (6:05) Managing the P&L for cheese powders and marshmallows at Kraft Heinz (10:28) How Saee ran customer discovery and prototype testing for physical food products (15:21) How pre-COVID, COVID, and post-COVID eating habits are completely different, and what that means for food businesses (18:05) Why time to commercialization pushed her out of food and into software (23:21) How she applied for PM roles without a technical background, and what strategy worked (27:00) The hardest part of the transition: building trust with software engineers (30:36) Job search advice for career switchers: what a resume alone cannot do (32:07) What the DoorDash for Business charter actually is, and what the day to day looks like (34:54) DoorDash versus Amazon: how company size shapes the speed of everything (37:12) Advice for anyone transitioning from physical products into software PM right now Blog and detailed workflow walkthroughs from this episode: [link]

Steve Preda here with the Management Blueprint, and my guest today is Jay Berkowitz, the Founder and CEO of Ten Golden Rules, a two-time Inc. 5000 digital marketing agency that helps law firms generate more qualified leads and clients. Jay, welcome to the show. Thank you so much. Great to be here, Steve. So we already talked a little bit about it, but I was really curious about why you focus on law firms. There are so many marketing agencies out there, but I’ve never seen anyone that focused on such a narrow niche. And then I’m going to link it to my favorite question. So what is your personal Why, and how are you manifesting it in your Ten Golden Rules agency? And maybe there’s a connection to law firms as well? Well, I’ll start with my personal Why, and my personal Why is I really like to win. And I’ve done the StrengthsFinder and different psychology tests, and I’m in the top—whatever—one or five percentile of people who are competitive. And so I was competitive in sports, but I really want to do well in business, and I want my clients to do well. Like, I really, really hate it if my client’s not right at the top of Google and if my client’s not growing in more new cases signed every month. So that seems to be a really great fit for the business I’m in, which is helping clients with growth strategies, part of which is the marketing piece, getting new traffic to their website. Part of it is conversion, so we do a lot of work with our clients on getting a higher percentage of the folks who do show up to call, to click, to fill out a form. And then we work with their intake teams on converting those opportunities. And the final piece we work with them is really running a five-star operation—meaning that they’re getting more five-star Google reviews and getting more referrals from past clients and referral partners. So we do a lot of work in those three pieces of the business to help law firms grow, and I really want them to win because when they win, I win. Selfishly. No, I love it. I love it. So are you like an outsourced marketing department and marketing-sales department for these law firms? How do you see yourselves? What is the role that you fulfill? Yeah, I mean, we are a consulting agency. So first and foremost, we’re going to help them strategically figure out where to focus. And we have a fully functioning digital marketing agency, so we do websites and SEO and Local Services Ads and pay-per-click and social media and video and lots of AI. And then as a part of our consulting practice, we help with intake consulting that I mentioned before and five-star operations. And a big part of that is just finding the right partners because we’ll do high-level intake coaching and point out if they’re not answering the phone, if they’re not putting the right people on the phone, and then we’ll connect them with one of the top intake coaches in the legal industry. If their back end is a little rough and needs some help, there’s a number of partners. Like, for example, there’s a really great software called Case Status we recommend to all of our clients. And imagine Case Status is an app. So, like, when we all order an Uber or order food, we get updates. “Hey, your driver’s been selected. Your driver will be here in 10 minutes. Your driver’s waiting outside. Do you want to have a conversation with your driver? What temperature do you want?” And so there’s a great app called Case Status, which can manage the case in an app format that consumers are really used to. “Hey, we got your MRI booked, and here’s the location, and here’s the time. Don’t forget your MRI is tomorrow at 8:00 A.M. Here’s the location. If you can’t make the MRI, click here. Hey, we got your MRI. We forwarded it to the next surgeon,” in a case of a car accident. So using that software helps our firms get five-star Google ratings and lots more referrals, and that’s just one small piece of the pie. So within the niche of law firms, is this even a narrower niche of injury law firms that you work with? Yeah, it’s funny because when, as a business person, you go from working on 200 SIC codes and you pick one, “I’m only going to work with lawyers,” everybody always asks, like, “Which niche within the niche are you?” But by the nature of our business, 50% or 60% is personal injury, just because those guys are really invested in marketing. They spend a lot of time and money on it, and we’ve built a little reputation. But we also have estate firms and family lawyers, criminal attorneys, sex abuse lawyers, securities attorneys. So I always say 50% is personal injury and 50% is everybody else who deals with consumers. Because for the most part, the B2B lawyers, they’re not going to spend a lot on marketing. But we have done some beautiful websites for them. Very interesting. I have kind of a tangential question, but you may be able to help me answer it because I’m obviously wondering about it. I always see these billboards with the injury law firms promoting themselves, and I get if someone gets in a car accident and there’s a billboard above them, then it’s going to be an obvious thing for them to call, but it probably doesn’t happen that often. So how are these billboards so good for lawyers, or is it just a myth and they’re just wasting their money on it? No. I think the math is pretty compelling, and the average personal injury firm will make between $10,000 and $20,000 on average on cases. Then there will be one or two or three, what they call whales, every year. So a terrible incident where, like, a FedEx truck or a commercial vehicle hits a family and there’s serious injuries or death involved, and it’s a multimillion-dollar case. So the lawyers make a third of all the revenue that comes in on those cases, and they do a lot of work and they have a lot of expenses too. But when there’s millions of dollars at stake for just one case, these guys can afford the TV advertising, the billboard advertising, and the digital marketing that they do with us. So it’s not just a billboard. Yeah. Billboard is just a visible one. It’s basically the general idea that they do a lot of advertising because being top of mind is important. Yeah, for sure. And if, God forbid, someone you knew had an accident, you’d start noticing that every second ad on TV is also personal injury. Yeah. Yeah. That’s true. That’s true. So let’s talk about frameworks because that’s what this podcast is about. Business blueprints or concepts that you have developed, you observed, something that helps you make sense or streamline the ideas that you deal with in your business. Anything that comes to mind, something that can be explained in three to five steps? Yes. Well, I touched on it a little bit a minute ago, and we call it our Law Firm Success Formula. And the first part is attract, the second part is convert, and the third part is five-star operations. But I’ll spend a couple more minutes on it. So the attract piece is, first and foremost, you’ve got to have your website dialed in. You have to have a contemporary website. If your website’s more than five years old, it just sends a subtle, even subconscious message to folks that you’re not current, and the design times change over time. And also, Google’s functionality is going to change, or the functionality of your website, as it’s friendly to Google, particularly your mobile website, if it’s five years old, is not going to be the current best practice. And Google’s going to come and test your mobile website, and they’re going to send negative ratings back to the algorithm, and you’re going to show up less in the searches. Equally important is your Google Business Profile. And that’s your Google Maps address. And that has to be up-to-date and optimized and constantly updated with new content and blogs and videos and information and photos from your location because I always say that you don’t own your Google Maps, you lease it from Google, but it’s a second and very powerful web presence that a firm can have. So we do a lot of work on the websites, on the Google Maps, and there’s a whole SEO protocol around local SEO that surrounds the Google Maps listing and how you’re listed on your website and how you’re linked to by local businesses and the Chamber of Commerce and business associations and bar associations. And then the next piece is getting your message out there and optimizing for the AI. And so the AI today that’s important in my part of the business is the SEO AI, or a lot of us are calling it AEO, answer engine optimization. So a lot of the work we’re doing with our clients is answering questions on video, and those videos go on YouTube, and then we also use the video on a blog on the website. And you can use those videos throughout the internet, Facebook, LinkedIn, Twitter. Very importantly, add a video to your Google Maps every week. So we generally shoot a series of at least a dozen videos with the client every quarter and have them answer questions. Because again, when you’re asking questions of Google or ChatGPT or Claude, “Who’s the best car accident attorney if I was hit in an Uber?” So we literally answer that question, and the attorney will say, “One of the things I’m getting asked all the time now is, who’s the best car accident attorney if I’m hit in an Uber? Do I need a car accident attorney?” And they’ll go on to answer that question, but literally, we put the question in the video. The question goes on their blog, goes on their website, goes on their Facebook, their Twitter. So it’s a very effective strategy to target the AEO, or the answer engine optimization. And by the way, there’s a couple other pieces that are very important to come up in the AI. So number one is answering questions. Number two is becoming an expert, so getting written up in journals and your bar association, your Chamber of Commerce, whatever industry you’re in, getting on Wikipedias and things like that, and answering questions on Reddit and Quora, which are the answer engine websites. And then the final piece is some technical stuff you can do on your website, as simple as adding frequently asked questions. Most people only have five FAQs on their website. You should have 50 or 100 today in this world of answer engine optimization. So the first piece in our formula is attracting traffic to the website and getting the brand right. And then the second piece is conversion. And I mentioned things like answering the phone. Super critical today that you answer the phone. And I know that sounds obvious, but Google’s actually tracking how long it takes you to answer the phone when someone clicks off a Google ad or a Google Maps listing. And if it takes more than 15 seconds and three rings, Google’s going to, again, downgrade you for future listings. And it’s not nefarious. There’s nothing negative. It’s just like when people use Google, Google wants them to have a successful experience. Yeah. So if they’re looking for a car accident lawyer or a shoe repair or a pizza, if you don’t answer the phone quickly, the next time, they’re going to put you down a little bit lower in the listings. So conversion is a multifaceted program that we help our clients with: answering the phone, answering the phone with empathy, answering the phone with a professional who can handle the call, not somebody who’s a busy trial attorney or a busy paralegal, and they don’t even want to take calls. So you really need a professional who’s trained to convert those opportunities. And then we’ve also built some software to optimize any missed calls, and we even have a software when people fill out a form on the website, it immediately sends a text to the intake team so you can call them back. Because we’ve all had that experience where you fill out the form on the website, and you wait five minutes, 10 minutes, an hour, a day. Well, by then, you forgot whose form you filled out, and you filled out a couple other forms on other law firms’ websites or other marketing agencies’ or consultants’ websites, right? So very important that we have the software that immediately texts the form information to the intake team. They can call the person right back. And then the final piece, I talked about five-star operations, and we have several programs to help our clients get more Google reviews and get more referrals from their existing clients and their referral partners. And one of the subtle things that a lot of people don’t do, and this is the easiest, most cost-effective marketing piece, is just sending out a monthly newsletter. I mean, every business and every law firm and every marketing agency has to have a monthly newsletter. It’s very inexpensive. You can use Mailchimp or Constant Contact and send out some valuable information, some of your community activities, if you’re speaking at the Chamber of Commerce or your bar association, or I’m speaking at an industry conference. And every time I send out a newsletter, I get two or three calls. “Oh, Jay, I was meaning to call you. We want to redo our website.” Or, “Jay, would you be on my podcast?” Thank you for that, Steve. And just being top of mind increases your business opportunities, those referrals. So there’s a number of those programs that we do to help our clients get more five-star Google reviews and more high-value referrals. That’s fantastic. You’re really very systematic about it. I mean, this is a huge framework, so I don’t know if we can promote it. It’s not going to be easy to promote all parts of it. But I really like the AEO optimization element: answering questions, becoming an expert on Wikipedia, Reddit, Quora, and the FAQs. Is there anything else there in this AEO optimization that may be important? Well, the first part about answering questions, I can give you a couple clues there. One of the areas to get questions is to monitor the questions you take on a regular basis. And we use an AI called Fathom that records all my phone calls. And it creates a transcript, and I asked another AI, like a Claude or one of the AIs, to read all 200 most recent sales calls and transcribe all of the questions that I answered more than once. And there were several questions that I answered 20, 30 times and several that I answered two, three, four times. It came up with 269 questions that I get asked on a regular basis on my sales calls, and now we’re systematically answering those questions on videos and blogs and content on our website because we know those are the questions that we get asked on a frequent basis by people who are interested in our products and services. So if you can find the true questions that you’re asked, I often joke that Margaret, the receptionist, you should give her a little clipboard beside her desk, and every question that comes in through the intake department, you want her to write it down and then hand that off to your marketing department and write a blog post. Because literally, the questions that people are asking about car accidents or divorces or consulting services or marketing blueprints, those are the questions that people are asking Google, ChatGPT, and Claude. So if you proactively collect and answer the questions, that’s very powerful. And then in the expertise area, things you can do like getting in Wikipedia's, which is hard to get. You really have to be a known public figure today to get approved for a Wikipedia. But Grok has its own Grokipedia, and there’s several other pedias out there. Just making sure that you’re properly listed in all of your industry association listings and your local business associations. When you just take a look at who’s linking to your competitors, you’re going to find a list of 200 websites that link to and list your competitors, and you can get listed in all those places, in most of those places, because there’s multiple chambers of commerce and business associations and bar associations in every region. And that’s true for every business, not just for lawyers. And then the final piece about the five-star operations, the simplest insight there is if you want lots of five-star reviews, you have to run a five-star business. You have to think of yourself like a five-star hotel. And when you show up at The Ritz or The Four Seasons, which I’m lucky enough to do a couple times a year because I go to lawyer conferences, and those guys don’t fool around. Even as you pull up, they’re like, “Oh, welcome, Mr. Berkowitz.” I’m like, “How do they know that?” Probably because I told them what type of car I was coming in. Or they’ll ask you, “Are you staying here?” And your name is Mr. Berkowitz. And then as soon as the person hands your bags off and they take you to reception, you’re Mr. Berkowitz for the rest of your stay. They know who you are. They recognize the staff are trained to give you that high level of service. And then when you go over to the concierge, there’s someone whose whole job is to make your visit great and get you fantastic dinner reservations and nurture your whole relationship, get you theater tickets or concert tickets. So if you think of your business as a five-star operation from the first time they call to every conversation, they should know Mr. Berkowitz. They should be able to pull up your file. They should know what the status of your business relationship is or your legal case. And in fact, we recommend the software I talked about earlier, so they’re proactively sending you updates on your case. You don’t even have to call in. And the number one bar complaint is, “My lawyer doesn’t answer the phone and doesn’t give me updates on the status of my case.” And I think that’s true for every business. So if you’re proactively sending out updates and information to your clients, they’re proactively happy as opposed to reactively trying to chase you down. Basically, you cannot fake being a good business. You have to be a good business. But it’s good to be reminded of what it takes to be a five-star service-oriented. Yeah, you’re right. Yeah. Five years ago, you could fake it. Today, you can’t fake it. The Google reviews are omnipresent, and I think in 70 or 80% of businesses. I saw a data point the other day, people look at Google reviews before they work with a company. Yeah. That is true. That is true. Well, thanks for reminding me. So what drives growth in your marketing agency business? I think there’s three big chunks of business opportunities for us. The first one, and the best one for everybody, is always referrals. And so I do a lot of hard work to nurture my referral base. As a matter of fact, I’ve even created my own sort of networking group, if you will, of other people who call on the same types of businesses that I do. And I make sure that I reach out to them and have a quick Zoom call. I met with two of them this morning on just a half-hour Zoom call, finding out what’s up in their life, what type of referrals they’re looking for, and asking how I can give, and giving as many referrals as I get. So building those relationships, we call it know, like, and trust in networking. And constantly building those relationships and then spending time with them at the industry conferences to really put a focus that I think I made a mistake and I ignored that up until the last four or five years. And now I spend more time at a conference on the trade show floor with the other vendors as I do trying to meet the attorneys, because if you build a relationship with a vendor who has 200 clients, you can get 200 referrals. If you build a relationship with a one-off prospect, you can get one. Maybe he’ll refer you to someone he does business with. But really building those relationships, those referral relationships, has been fruitful for me. And then the second piece is those trade shows. And there’s an expression we use in my mastermind, which is, “Stage time is money time.” And if you can become an expert and develop a book and a presentation and get featured at your industry conference, that’s the best way to attend those conferences. And if you haven’t spoken on stage at your industry conference, I highly recommend it. There’s about 10 benefits that you don’t even know about, that people reach out to you beforehand, even before the conference, to book you on their podcast or book a meeting with you or introduce you to someone. At the conference itself, there’s often a green room, which is a private area where you can do some business, where the other speakers are, and often the media is also in the green room. So you’ve got access to some of the most influential influencers at the conference itself. And then obviously, after you’re on stage, everyone wants to be your best friend if you do a good job, if your presentation is high value. Yeah. So that’s one of the best conference hacks. And then we try and do everything to optimize having a booth and having a presence at the conference or whatever we’re doing there. We often host a party or a dinner as well. And a lot of times, we do that with our vendor friends that I talked about earlier. And it really gives you a chance to stand out at the conference itself. And then the third piece is marketing. We’ve been very fortunate and successful. We started a webinar series six years ago, and every month for six years, without fail, we’ve done a webinar. SEO for lawyers, pay-per-click for lawyers, social media for lawyers, video for lawyers, and then branching out into things like EOS, the Entrepreneurial Operating System. We do an annual business planning webinar. And thankfully, about two years ago, February, one of those videos took off on YouTube. Something in the algorithm, it just loved it, and people were watching a long time on this video, and they were watching other videos after they watched this video. And I used to be so proud because I had 2,000 or 3,000 people who watched my webinars, and this one started going to 20,000, 30,000. Today, I believe it’s been viewed 95,000 times. It’s called the Top 10 Hottest Technology Tips for Attorneys, and that one seemed to pull the whole channel with it. So now, on a regular basis, we’ll get 50,000 or 60,000 views each month, and our overall channel’s up to 1,300,000 or 1,400,000 views on YouTube. So creating high-value content has been a great sort of foundation for us, and then we’ll also market that in several different ways. We send emails: “Hey, please come to our monthly live-streaming event. We’ve got a great panel. We’re going to teach you all about the latest technologies in AI for lawyers.” And then those panel partners will promote the event as well. And then we send the emails in advance to the webinar. We post on our LinkedIn, my personal LinkedIn, company Facebook, Jay’s Facebook, Twitter, company Twitter. And then after, “Hey, a lot of people said they missed the webinar. They couldn’t get the link to work. Here’s a replay of the webinar.” And then we take snippets from the webinar and put it in our social media. So that and a weekly podcast has been very, very powerful inbound marketing and thought leadership marketing for the firm. Love it. That’s really cool. You’ve got some good processes, and thanks for sharing. This is interesting, the 10 technology tips. And it’s got a good title for sure, and I’m sure that it’s a good niche as well, and well done doing this. So no business is perfect, of course. What is something that you’re actively trying to figure out in your business? Well, I’ve been spectacularly unsuccessful at hiring salespeople. And a number of my friends in my mastermind say the best day of their life is when they hire a salesperson who can sell better than them. We have a great sales process, and we have a great sales team, but I haven’t yet found the person who’s a little bit more effective in nurturing and closing the sales. So I definitely have some work to do still in building a sales team. Yeah. I mean, you’re two times Inc. 5000, so you must be growing fast. And in fact, I saw that you doubled the number of employees in the last couple of years. How do you make sure that the leadership is growing with the number of employees? How are you growing your leaders? Well, Steve, thank you, because that’s one of my favorite topics. And we’re big proponents of EOS, the Entrepreneurial Operating System, and the book Traction. And by the way, my hot tip to anyone who’s hearing this and is a business owner: don’t read the book Traction first. Read this book, Get a Grip. Because Get a Grip tells you the story of Traction, but it’s told as a story. And if you’re the founder, what EOS calls a visionary, Traction’s more like an operations manual, and that’s for your COO, your chief operating officer. So read Get a Grip, and then we got started three or four years ago self-implementing EOS. Yeah. And two and a half years ago, we hired an implementer and did a full-scale EOS, Entrepreneurial Operating System, integration into our business. And that was when we were around 10 or 12 people. And when you’re a small business, five, six, seven employees, all of them can report to the CEO, and we had very hands-on training. And as the business grew and we got to 10 or 12, that’s where you’re supposed to develop leadership specialties. And obviously, 12 people can’t report to you, and you’re getting busier in sales and marketing and speaking and flying all over the place. So as we built this EOS leadership team, it’s been a real fantastic awakening for me because now there’s people who are very, very competent at what they do. They’re leading each of our departments, and I don’t have to sit in all the seats anymore. I found people who are better than me, smarter than me at what they do to lead each of those teams. That’s pretty cool. That’s pretty cool. So if someone is running a law firm out there and listening to all that advice and they’d like to learn more, where should they go and where can they connect with you? Well, the easiest thing is to go to tengoldenrules.com, or I’m Jay Berkowitz on most of the social media because when a new social media comes out, I always grab the name Jay Berkowitz. And probably much to the chagrin of a couple guys who are probably more important than me, Professor Jay Berkowitz and Chiropractor Jay Berkowitz. And if you guys are hearing this, I’m sorry, Dr. Jay Berkowitz, but I’ve got the Twitter and the Facebook and the LinkedIn handle. Yeah. That’s pretty cool. Actually, I was wondering because this podcast has been running for six years, and I had the recollection that I had a Jay Berkowitz on this show four or five years ago, and I had to make sure that it wasn’t you. So it’s funny that you mentioned this. Yeah. That’s awesome. So this is pretty impressive, not just as a law firm or a law firm owner, but anyone. I mean, these ideas that, Jay, you shared with us—how to attract people on your website, how to leverage AI and become an expert and create those FAQs and harvest them from your sales conversations, and then how you build a five-star operation so that you actually retain those clients and get them to refer and give you testimonials—that’s very, very valuable stuff. So I recommend all of you to look into implementing some of this stuff or reach out to Jay at one of the Jay Berkowitz handles or on the Ten Golden Rules website. So, Jay, thank you for coming and sharing your ideas and experiences and frameworks, particularly frameworks. And if you enjoyed listening, then stay tuned because every week I bring a couple of amazing entrepreneurs to this show. So thanks, Jay, for coming, and thank you for listening. You’re welcome, Steve. Thanks for having me. Thank you. Important Links: Jay's LinkedIn Jay's website

What if the Christian conversation about heaven has become too escapist, sensationalized, or sentimental? In this episode of Perspectives with Catherine Toon, author and pastor Brian Zahnd joins Catherine to explore themes from his book “Unseen Existences” and recover a deeper understanding of heaven, the unseen realm, spiritual formation, and our pilgrimage toward union with God. Brian describes heaven not simply as a distant location but as an eternal, unseen reality—and explores how our lives in this present world form us for deeper participation in God. Together, Catherine and Brian discuss the “already and not yet,” the spiritual significance of our everyday journey, and why there are no shortcuts in genuine spiritual formation. They also explore wonder and beauty as powerful ways of becoming more awake to God. From watching stars and bats in the backyard to intentionally noticing beauty on an ordinary drive through suburbia, Brian explains how wonder can awaken gratitude and reconnect us with realities we often overlook. The conversation moves into Christian aesthetics, spiritual experiences, prayer, imagination, technology, the false self, and the mystery of becoming who God created us to be. In this conversation, you’ll discover: • Why Brian believes Christians need a renewed theology of heaven • How this life functions as a pilgrimage toward union with God • Why wonder can become a spiritual practice • How beauty can point us toward the divine • Why ordinary spiritual experiences deserve meaningful conversation • How our humanity connects the physical and spiritual worlds • Why technology cannot replace our relationship with God • How imagination can help us become attentive to the unseen realm • Why holy awe—the “mysterium tremendum”—matters in spiritual formation Perspectives with Catherine Toon explores conversations that invite deeper encounters with God, spiritual transformation, love, truth, beauty, and what it means to live fully awake to His presence.

AI has changed the risk landscape faster than many organizations could have anticipated. But what does that mean for privacy, cybersecurity, ethics, and compliance professionals?In this episode of the FIT4Privacy Podcast, we explore how governance has evolved from data governance and privacy governance to the broader world of AI governance.The conversation looks at what AI governance really means, why privacy alone is no longer enough, and how organizations can balance innovation with risks around transparency, accuracy, ethics, cybersecurity, and societal impact.We also explore the evolution of AI governance before ChatGPT, lessons from Canada's approach to automated decision-making systems, and why organizations don't necessarily need another committee but do need a coordinated approach to managing AI risks.Tune in for a deeper conversation on AI, privacy, ethics, and the future of responsible governance.

Your book may not be dead. As Miracle Max would say, it might only be mostly dead. A book that flopped three years ago could sell better today than it did on launch day, but only if you fix what actually broke.This week, I talked with Julie Broad, founder of Book Launchers and host of BookLaunchers.TV. Julie is a #1 Amazon bestselling author, and her team has helped more than 400 authors write, publish, and market their books. When her clients publish second editions, her team moves their reviews over all the time.In this episode, you'll discoverWhether a book that sold well at launch is a candidate for relaunch.The review pattern that tells you if a relaunch will waste your money.The one change that makes it impossible to keep your reviews when you relaunch.Listen in or read the blog version before you spend a dime on a new cover, so your relaunch doesn't repeat the mistakes that stalled your book the first time.Blog link: https://www.authormedia.com/how-to-relaunch-your-book/Authormedia.social linkYouTube Link: https://youtu.be/0CjW9JmGAxISupport the show
Ghazal Badiozamani is the SVP of Product Management at Cengage, one of the world's largest education companies with roots in publishing that go back over 100 years. Before Cengage, she spent eight years at Elsevier helping legacy businesses understand and adopt emerging technology, starting with machine learning before it was mainstream, eventually building a digital team from scratch and launching a digital authoring system from nothing. In this episode of the CPO Rising series, Products That Count Resident Chief Product Officer Renee Niemi sits down with Ghazal to talk about what it takes to lead product inside a company that has existed for over a century, why the squad model may be approaching a fork in the road, and her take on the most pressing question in AI-era product development: what does product even mean now? In this episode, we cover: (1:11) Ghazal's path from strategy to product at Elsevier, and what prompted the move to Cengage (4:32) What it actually feels like to lead product inside a company that's been around for generations (6:08) Why product problems always end as people problems, and why that's the most interesting part of the job (7:28) How design principles and core values serve as anchors through both digital transformation and AI adoption (12:59) AI's progression: from efficiency tool to fundamental question about what product even is (14:55) Why building for nonlinear human thinking is the new product challenge (16:58) Team structure today and two very different futures for the squad model (19:46) Why removing design from the triad is a mistake, and what each personality type actually contributes (23:23) Development speed: from 3 to 5 months down to 2, and why customer absorption is now the real constraint (27:14) The CPO alpha effect: the two capabilities that are almost never found in the same person (30:45) The funnel-based product analytics dashboard Ghazal checks almost every day Blog and detailed workflow walkthroughs from this episode: https://productsthatcount.com/the-question-ai-still-cant-answer-about-product-management-cengage-product-svp/

Katie Ferro is back for part two, and we picked up right where we left off with Katie's line that stuck with me all week: if you don't have a stance, it's because you're not in the room enough. The same goes for advisory. You won't feel confident until you put yourself in the room, and you can't get in the room until you build some confidence. So we talked about how to break that cycle. Katie shared three real client emails from the last 10 days that were quietly asking for more, and I shared how I built my own advisory process with a practice client.In this episode you'll hear:How to recognize when a client is asking for advisory helpHow a simple 30-minute conversation can turn an intimidating email into a quick winWhy calling it a "budget" might be killing client buy-inWhy you should bundling advisory into your packagesResources mentioned in this episode:Katie's post "Being cheap won't stop you from being broke":KPI Download: https://www.ambitiousbookkeeper.com/kpiElevate: https://www.ambitiousbookkeeper.com/elevateXero: https://xeroamericas.partnerlinks.io/79afz10exu7dDubsado: https://www.dubsado.com/?c=shoupcpaContent Snare: https://contentsnare.com/#_r_serena58Previous Episodes with KatiePart 1 of this conversation with Katie Ferro(https://youtu.be/to3aHJXefPI)225 ⎸ Recast: Become a Bookkeeper with Katie Ferro(https://www.buzzsprout.com/1774460/episodes/18369393)44 ⎸ Best Advice from Accounting Course Creators(https://www.buzzsprout.com/1774460/episodes/10445058)Meet Katie FerroKatie Ferro is a CPA, reformed rule follower, corporate escapee, and mama to three little ones.She built her bookkeeping business to surpass her corporate tax manager salary, working only the hours she used to spend commuting and without giving up her stay-at-home mom crown.Today, Katie runs her bookkeeping business while educating and empowering accountants and aspiring bookkeepers to build businesses that support their lives instead of keeping them from living them.Connect with Katie
Paring Down: Realistic minimalism to live more intentionally
Why didn't we choose international adoption? Do we have an open adoption? What about children waiting to be adopted in foster care? How long did the process take? What does adoption cost? How do you know if you're doing it ethically? How do you talk about adoption with your kids? Today, I'm answering these questions and more as we kick off our 10-week Good Stuff series all about why family matters. I figured it was a good time to share a bit more about my own family (while maintaining the highest privacy and respect for both my son and his first family). I hope we can all remember that families look and form differently, and that if you or someone you know is considering adoption, this episode can be a good resource to learn more!

Most lawyers know relationships lead to referrals. The challenge is keeping those relationships alive when everything else gets busy. In this episode of the Lawyerist Podcast, Stephanie Everett talks with Jay Ruane about analog marketing and the simple systems that make staying connected part of running a firm. Jay explains why offline marketing often falls apart after the first month and how a repeatable approach can help lawyers follow through. They explore using AI to identify forgotten connections in your inbox, making time for short coffee meetings, and becoming the person others trust to make a useful introduction. The conversation also covers networking as an introvert, asking about someone else's ideal client, and choosing thoughtful gifts that people actually want to keep. Jay shares why his firm sends clients blankets without its logo and why a manageable network of 50 referral partners can support a successful practice. If your marketing plan depends on remembering to reach out when things slow down, this episode offers a more practical way to build relationships, generate referrals, and keep showing up.

EL ÚLTIMO PELDAÑO (25/09/2025) INVESTIGANDO EN EL ESCENARIO DEL MISTERIO En el programa anterior conocimos los testimonios de las personas que han tenido experiencias extrañas en el Teatro Circo Apolo de El Algar. Con el fin de comprobar la posible actividad anómala existente en dicho enclave el equipo del programa ha llevado a cabo investigaciones en el teatro, en este programa ofrecimos los resultados mas interesantes obtenidos. Contamos con la participación de Mar Ruedas, que hace unos meses tuvo una inquietante experiencia en el teatro y los comentarios de Joaquín Soto, miembro de la Junta Directiva del Teatro Circo Apolo y colaborador de nuestro programa. LOS MUERTOS DE LA NUEVA UFOLOGIA En los últimos meses, una secuencia de muertes y desapariciones ha comenzado a dibujar una sombra sobre algunos de los centros científicos más sensibles del planeta. Nombres vinculados a NASA, Los Álamos, Caltech o programas de tecnología avanzada han quedado atrapados en un relato que mezcla investigación real, huecos forenses y una ufología nueva que reescribe cada silencio. Toda una constelación de casos, en la que es necesario separar hechos de mitos y desmontar la arquitectura conspirativa que intenta convertir tragedias aisladas en una narrativa de poder, secreto y antigravedad. Con nuestro colaborador Cristian Puig, que acaba de publicar un artículo sobre el tema en la revista “El ojo crítico”, seguimos las pistas que nos llevan a atisbar que hay de cierto y cuando de fantasia en una serie de tragedias que algunos quieren conectar. CONTINÚA LA DESCLASIFICACIÓN UAP EN EEUU El Departamento de Guerra de Estados Unidos publicó el pasado 18 de septiembre la Release 6 del programa PURSUE. El catálogo reúne 72 archivos: 56 documentos, 15 vídeos y una grabación sonora. Y hay material que nos lleva desde la Guerra Fría hasta observaciones militares recientes.. Comentamos los aspectos mas interesantes de esta nueva entrega. Dirección, guion y presentación: Joaquín Abenza. Producción, documentación y redes sociales: María José Garnández.

Nesta edição do Geopolítica com Paulo Filho, o principal assunto será a decisão tomada pela União Europeia de avançar com seus cinco primeiros Projetos Europeus de Defesa de Interesse Comum (EDPCI), uma iniciativa destinada a fortalecer simultaneamente as capacidades militares dos países europeus e a indústria de defesa do continente.Os projetos abrangem cinco áreas consideradas críticas: drones e sistemas antidrones; defesa marítima e do fundo do mar; capacidades espaciais; defesa aérea e antimísseis integrada; e proteção do flanco oriental da Europa.Mais do que novos sistemas de armas, a decisão levanta questões geopolíticas importantes: até onde avançará a integração europeia no campo da defesa? Qual será a relação dessas iniciativas com a OTAN? A guerra na Ucrânia está produzindo uma transformação permanente na postura militar europeia? E a Europa conseguirá reduzir sua dependência dos Estados Unidos em capacidades estratégicas?Além desse tema principal, vamos analisar os outros acontecimentos mais importantes da geopolítica internacional dos últimos dias, com atenção especial às guerras em andamento e às movimentações das grandes potências.

This is a clip of the latest Bonus pod! For the full episode, please subscribe on Patreon. This bonus pod is about the late Bob Mackie's excellent period costuming for "Pennies from Heaven" (1981)! It's a musical unlike anything we've seen before, with the characters lip-syncing (rather than actually singing) pop songs from the 30s with spectacular choreography, all serving as an escapist contrast to the dour reality of the Great Depression. Mackie costumes the film well, using long point collars, collar bars, and fedoras to dress the men, none of which are particularly sympathetic. It's an interesting film that was worth the watch and discussion!

Vor über acht Jahren war Vincent von Freaky Finance schon einmal bei mir im Podcast. Damals war finanzielle Freiheit sein großes Ziel. Heute ist er 49 und hat nach 33 Jahren Betriebszugehörigkeit sein Angestelltenverhältnis beendet.Die erste Million hatte er mit 40 zusammen. Aufgehört hat er trotzdem nicht, weil er sich immer noch Szenarien ausgemalt hat, in denen das Geld doch nicht reicht. Stattdessen ging es über Teilzeit, Auszeiten und unbezahlten Urlaub Schritt für Schritt Richtung Ausstieg. Eine Abfindung in der Coronazeit hat er sogar abgelehnt. Heute kommen im Schnitt rund 13.000 Euro im Monat aus Mieten, Zinsen, Dividenden und Optionsprämien zusammen.Passives Einkommen ist das für Vincent ausdrücklich nicht, hinter den Kapitalerträgen steckt Arbeit. Gut die Hälfte seines Vermögens liegt in Wertpapieren, dazu kommen sechs Wohnungen, physische Edelmetalle und der Optionshandel. In Rente ist er damit noch nicht: Freaky Finance ist jetzt sein Haupterwerb, die Betriebsrente kommt erst später, und um die Krankenversicherung kümmert er sich selbst.Wir sprechen über drei verstorbene Mieter und eine ausgebrannte Wohnung, von der er erst Wochen später erfahren hat. Und darüber, warum er seine Immobilien jetzt ohne Druck nach und nach verkauft. Außerdem geht es um Dividenden als passivste Form von Cashflow, um Neid und Respekt im Kollegenkreis und darum, warum ihm sieben statt vier Stunden Schlaf heute wichtiger sind als die letzte Nachkommastelle Rendite. Zum Schluss erklärt Vincent das Lebensarbeitszeitkonto, ein Werkzeug, das kaum jemand auf dem Schirm hat.

Sean Carroll's Mindscape: Science, Society, Philosophy, Culture, Arts, and Ideas
The worry about debates over free will is that they degenerate into semantics -- what do you mean by "free will," really? But there are important substantive issues that shouldn't be ignored. Do people deserve blame for doing wrong things? Can we make choices that create meaning for our lives? Philosopher Gregg Caruso denies the reality of free will, but is in favor of making good choices, as he discusses in his new book How to Live Well Without Free Will. Listen or watch Rolex Planet Visionaries wherever you get your podcasts. #ad Blog post with transcript: https://preposterousuniverse.com/podcast/2026/09/28/369-gregg-caruso-on-living-well-without-free-will/ Support Mindscape on Patreon(opens in new tab).

Ryan, Brant, and special guest Daniel House drop some Skinformation! . . . YOU DON'T KNOW MOJACK is a podcast dedicated to exploring the entire SST catalogue, in order, from start to finish. During the podcast we will discuss all the releases that are part of our core DNA, as well as many lesser-known releases that deserve a second chance, or releases that we are discovering for the very first time (we actually don't know Mojack!). First and foremost we are fans, and acknowledge that we are not perfect and don't know everything – sometimes the discussion is more about a time, place, feeling, personal experience or random tangents, and less about the facts (but we will try to get to the facts too).

What happens when you spend years doing everything “right” — only to discover you might have missed something along the way?In this episode of The Still Growing Up Film Club, Cece Fanning heads back to high school with Booksmart, following best friends Molly and Amy as they attempt to squeeze four years of missed parties, bad decisions and teenage chaos into one unforgettable night before graduation.As their carefully constructed plans spectacularly unravel, Cece explores what the film can teach us about perfectionism, achievement, friendship and the danger of assuming we already understand the people around us. She also looks at the pressure to be known for one particular thing — whether that's being smart, successful or neurodivergent — and what happens when other people see a very different version of us from the person we know ourselves to be.Along the way, there are crushes, awkward encounters, unexpected friendships, plans going wildly off-script and some painful lessons about listening to the people we love. Molly and Amy may begin the night determined to prove that they can have it all, but they discover something more important: growing up sometimes means admitting you were wrong, apologising when you've hurt someone and allowing yourself to enjoy the present instead of constantly preparing for what's next.Because working hard matters. But so do friendship, fun, mistakes and all the parts of life that can't be added to a résumé.Follow Cece:
