C dans l'air du 1er décembre 2025 - Zelensky fragilisé...Poutine et Trump prêts à signer?Encore une semaine cruciale pour l'Ukraine. Volodymyr Zelensky est reçu ce lundi à l'Élysée par Emmanuel Macron, afin d'échanger sur les négociations et le plan de paix proposé par Donald Trump. Cette nouvelle visite en France du président ukrainien, la dixième depuis le début de l'invasion russe de l'Ukraine en février 2022, intervient au lendemain de nouvelles discussions en Floride. Les Russes n'étaient pas autour de la table : il n'y avait que les Américains et les Ukrainiens, mais le chef de la diplomatie américaine, Marco Rubio, a jugé que ces pourparlers avaient été « productifs », même s'il a prévenu qu'« il restait encore du travail ». Une source proche de la délégation ukrainienne a confié de son côté à l'AFP que ces discussions n'étaient « pas faciles ».Cela n'a pas empêché le président américain d'afficher dimanche son optimisme à bord d'Air Force One. « Je pense que la Russie aimerait que cela se termine, et je pense que l'Ukraine… je sais que l'Ukraine aimerait que cela se termine », a déclaré Donald Trump.L'émissaire de Donald Trump, Steve Witkoff, qui a participé aux discussions en Floride, doit de nouveau se rendre à Moscou mardi pour discuter avec le président russe Vladimir Poutine. Ces échanges seront suivis de près par les Ukrainiens, les Européens et les Américains, tant l'envoyé spécial est considéré comme proche de Moscou depuis la divulgation d'un appel téléphonique avec un conseiller diplomatique russe par l'agence Bloomberg.Les Européens espèrent que l'administration de Donald Trump, qu'ils soupçonnent de « complaisance » vis-à-vis de Vladimir Poutine, ne sacrifiera pas l'Ukraine, considérée comme un rempart face aux ambitions russes.De son côté, le président ukrainien – qui incarne depuis bientôt quatre ans la résistance ukrainienne à l'invasion russe – a dû se séparer en urgence de son chef de cabinet, Andriy Yermak, éclaboussé par un important scandale de corruption. Un timing qui ne pouvait pas être plus mauvais pour l'Ukraine, alors que dans le pays les attaques incessantes des drones et des missiles russes sur les villes se poursuivent et que sur la ligne de front l'armée russe gagne du terrain, kilomètre carré par kilomètre carré, même si l'armée ukrainienne réussit encore des coups d'éclat, comme l'attaque de deux pétroliers russes par des drones marins le week-end dernier.Nos experts :- Général Jean-Paul PERRUCHE - général de corps d'armée, ancien directeur général de l'état-major de l'Union européenne et ancien chef de la mission militaire auprès du commandement suprême allié de l'Otan en Europe- Alain BAUER - professeur émérite de criminologie au Conservatoire National des Arts et Métiers, auteur de Conspiration au Vatican, publié aux Editions First- Gallagher FENWICK - Grand reporter, spécialiste des questions internationales, ancien correspondant à Washington, auteur de Volodymyr Zelensky : l'Ukraine dans le sang, publié aux éditions du Rocher- Patricia ALLEMONIERE - Grand reporter spécialiste des questions internationales

C dans l'air du 29 novembre 2025 - Poutine, immigration, inflation: Trump en échec?Au-dessus de Donald Trump, le ciel s'assombrit. Mercredi à Washington, deux membres de la Garde nationale ont été blessés par balle lors d'une fusillade. Le président américain a annoncé le lendemain la mort de l'une des deux militaires suite à ses blessures. Le locataire de la Maison-Blanche a dénoncé un "acte de terreur". Mais loin de vouloir apaiser la situation, il a qualifié "d'animal" le tireur, et a ciblé son prédécesseur Joe Biden, l'accusant d'avoir fait entrer légalement cet individu, un ressortissant afghan. Il a également affirmé vouloir "suspendre définitivement l'immigration en provenance de tous les pays du tiers-monde". Son administration a aussitôt interrompu toutes les décisions en matière d'asile et suspendu la délivrance de visas à toute personne voyageant avec un passeport afghan. Pas moins de 18 autres pays sont concernés par cette décision.Il s'agit du nouveau tour de vis d'une politique anti-immigration déjà très sévère et contestée, particulièrement dans les grandes métropoles du pays. Dans ces villes, les agissements violents de l'ICE, une agence de police fédérale utilisée par Donald Trump pour faire la chasse aux migrants, ont choqué. Ces municipalités, principalement démocrates, ont décidé de se défendre en passant par la justice.Sur la scène internationale, la révélation par l'agence Bloomberg des conversations secrètes sur le plan de paix en Ukraine a fait l'effet d'une bombe. La proximité manifeste entre l'envoyé spécial de Donald Trump, Steve Witkoff, et Iouri Ouchakov, le conseiller diplomatique de Vladimir Poutine a choqué. Il apparait plus que jamais que ce plan de paix a été écrit sous la dictée de Moscou. Cela interroge sur les liens entre le locataire de la Maison-Blanche et la Russie. Qualifiée depuis des années de "liaison dangereuse" par les détracteurs de Trump, cette relation n'a jamais laissé fuiter de preuve accablante pour le président américain. Il est cependant régulièrement accusé de collusion, soit avec les renseignements russes, soit avec le pouvoir politique du Kremlin. Et malgré l'absence de preuve, Donald Trump ne parvient pas à se défaire de ces nombreuses suspicions.Il ne parvient pas non plus à se débarrasser des problèmes économiques du pays. Son pari contre l'inflation est pour l'heure perdant. Lors de la dernière campagne présidentielle, ses promesses sur le sujet lui avaient permis de remporter l'adhésion de la majorité de la population. Mais aujourd'hui, les Américains déchantent. En dépit des discours, ils continuent de voir les prix augmenter. Le niveau d'inflation, à 3% en septembre, devient un véritable sujet de préoccupation politique pour la Maison-Blanche et pour Donald Trump, de plus en plus contesté.La justice pourra-t-elle mettre un coup de frein à la politique anti-immigration de Donald Trump ?La crédibilité de Donald Trump sur la scène internationale est-elle affectée par les révélations de Bloomberg ?Le président américain peut-il perdre l'adhésion des classes populaires, dont le pouvoir d'achat est miné par l'inflation ?Nos experts :- Anthony Bellanger – Éditorialiste, France Info TV – Spécialiste des questions internationales- Nicole Bacharan – Historienne et politologue, spécialiste des États-Unis, auteure de Requiem pour un monde libre- Corentin Sellin – Historien, spécialiste des États-Unis – Chroniqueur - Les Jours- Marjorie Paillon – Journaliste, spécialiste de la politique américaine- Olivier Piton – Avocat aux barreaux de Paris et de Washington DC (En visio depuis Washington)

Le premier ministre, Sébastien Lecornu, cherche encore des solutions pour faire adopter le budget et trouver les bons compromis sur les économies à faire. Plusieurs pays européens sont dans la même situation, cherchant où faire des économies. En Belgique, en Italie ou encore au Portugal, la population se mobilise et fait grève contre les réformes et plans budgétaires proposés par leurs gouvernements.  Plan de paix en Ukraine : un plan mort-né ?La semaine dernière, un plan de paix en 28 points, très favorable à la Russie, a été proposé par les États-Unis à l'Ukraine. Selon les révélations de Bloomberg, ce plan, négocié en secret, aurait été influencé par Iouri Ouchakov, haut conseiller russe. Depuis, sa version initiale a été revue lors de pourparlers entre responsables européens, ukraniens et américains pour passer à 19 points et être moins défavorable à l'Ukraine. L'émissaire américain Steve Witkoff doit rencontrer les responsables russes la semaine prochaine pour discuter de ce plan. Nous recevons Éloïse Quétel, co-commissaire scientifique de l'exposition "Momies" au musée de l'Homme. De l'Égypte antique aux premières momies sud américaines, qui ont plus de 9 000 ans, l'exposition est un voyage temporel dans l'histoire de cette pratique. Valérie Brochard nous emmène chez nos chers voisins polonais qui viennent de reconnaître, pour la première fois, un mariage homosexuel.

With Budget week finally at an end, certain mysteries remain. Chief among them is why the Chancellor decided to give an emergency speech preparing the public for a rise in income tax.On 4 November, Rachel Reeves summoned journalists to Downing Street early in the morning to warn that ‘the productivity performance we inherited is weaker than previously thought'. She then refused to rule out hiking income tax rates – sending a clear signal to markets that rises were coming. Nine days later, however, the Treasury let it be known via the FT that income tax increases would not be needed after all. When the gilt market reacted badly – assuming Reeves had abandoned fiscal tightening – Bloomberg was quickly briefed that the U-turn was due to a more favourable picture from the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) watchdog.Now that the dust has settled, however, the facts don't support any of this. For starters, despite Reeves's comments about the weak ‘productivity performance', there was no productivity-related black hole to plug. It wasn't that the downgrade to productivity growth was milder than expected – in fact it was severe, amounting to £16 billion. But this was more than offset by a £31 billion increase in expected tax receipts, driven by persistent inflation pushing up wages and making the economy more ‘tax rich'. The result: no black hole at all. Before her Budget measures were included – the benefits U-turns and spending increases – Reeves was actually sitting on a £4 billion surplus against her fiscal rules. She didn't technically need to do anything.To discuss the black hole mystery, Megan McElroy is joined by Tim Shipman and Michael Simmons. They also cover new data on the UK's brain drain, and assess whether the figures should be a cause for concern.Become a Spectator subscriber today to access this podcast without adverts.

C dans l'air du 28 novembre 2025 - Plan de paix : Poutine a-t-il déjà gagné ? Encore une nuit de frappes sur l'Ukraine. Missiles et drones ne laissent que peu de répit aux habitants, alors que les discussions autour du plan de paix américain pour mettre fin à la guerre entre l'Ukraine et la Russie se poursuivent. Jeudi, Vladimir Poutine a déclaré que les grandes lignes de ce plan pourraient servir de base à de « futurs accords » visant à mettre fin au conflit, tout en excluant de signer un document avec les autorités de Kiev, qu'il juge toujours « illégitimes ». Inflexible sur le fond, le président russe a réaffirmé que Moscou mettra fin à son offensive que si les forces ukrainiennes « se retirent des territoires qu'elles occupent » − sans préciser lesquels. « Dans le cas contraire, nous atteindrons nos objectifs militaires », a-t-il menacé.La cession par Kiev à Moscou des régions de Donetsk et de Lougansk figurait dans le plan originel en 28 points présenté la semaine dernière par les États-Unis, plan qui a été perçu par beaucoup à Kiev, en Europe mais aussi outre-Atlantique, comme une capitulation. Le texte a depuis été remanié après des consultations avec l'Ukraine et les Européens. Mais aux États-Unis, le débat sur l'origine réelle de ce plan se poursuit et a mis le feu au Parti républicain, depuis la révélation par le média Bloomberg de conversations entre Steve Witkoff et des proches de Vladimir Poutine, dans lesquelles l'envoyé spécial de Donald Trump apparaît aligné sur la posture russe.Sur le continent, les dirigeants de l'Union européenne tentent de se dresser unis contre la Russie et défendent un plan de paix respectueux de la souveraineté ukrainienne. Pour autant, le Premier ministre hongrois détonne. Viktor Orbán a promis, lors d'une rencontre avec le président Vladimir Poutine ce vendredi au Kremlin, de poursuivre les importations d'hydrocarbures russes dont son pays continue de dépendre. Le président russe, de son côté, s'est dit « très heureux » de la poursuite des relations entre les deux pays, basées selon lui sur le « pragmatisme ».Parallèlement, les autorités anticorruption ukrainiennes ont mené ce vendredi des perquisitions au domicile d'Andriy Iermak, chef de cabinet du président Zelensky. Une nouvelle qui fragilise le président ukrainien, à un moment où il poursuit sa quête d'appuis financiers et militaires en Europe, et alors que Kiev mène des pourparlers très difficiles sur le plan de paix. Andriy Iermak est le négociateur clé dans ce processus.Que contient le plan de paix en discussion ? Que sait-on des perquisitions en cours et de l'affaire de corruption qui secoue l'Ukraine depuis des mois ? Enfin, comment les pays baltes se préparent-ils face à la menace russe ?

Réalisé un an et demi avant le scrutin, ce sondage de l'institut Odoxa montre que face à n'importe quel de ses adversaires (Édouard Philippe, Gabriel Attal, Raphaël Glucksmann et Jean-Luc Mélenchon) au second tour, le président du RN l'emporterait largement. Service militaire volontaire : un facteur de cohésion nationale ?Emmanuel Macron a annoncé ce jeudi le retour du service militaire en France, qui avait disparu depuis 1997. Ce service national volontaire (SNV), d'une durée de 10 mois, entrera en vigueur l'été prochain. Les volontaires, entre 18 à 25 ans, serviront “exclusivement sur le territoire national”. Cette décision semble séduire les citoyens : 8 Français sur 10 approuvent le nouveau dispositif, selon un sondage Odoxa.Nous recevons Laurent Galmot, auteur, producteur en pop culture. Il nous plonge dans l'histoire des objets et jouets phares de notre enfance dans “Phénomènes de cour de récré. Encyclopédie des jouets qui ont été à la mode...un jour” (Ynnis Editions).Qui mène la diplomatie américaine aujourd'hui ? Steve Witkoff, émissaire spécial de Donald Trump chargé de négocier la paix en Ukraine et de connivence avec le Kremlin, selon Bloomberg, ou Marco Rubio, secrétaire d'État américain, plus sceptique face à Vladimir Poutine ? C'est le duel de la semaine de Frédéric Says.Rachida Dati, candidate à la mairie de Paris qui s'affiche en jean, talons et gilet jaune d'éboueur, pour dénoncer la saleté dans les rues parisiennes.

As peace talks for Ukraine continue, a leaked transcript released by Bloomberg has shocked many observers: It documents a phone call between US Special Envoy Steve Witkoff and Putin's main peace negotiator, where Witkoff appears to offer advice on how the Russian leader can get the most out of President Trump. Nonetheless, the president says Witkoff will travel to Moscow for more negotiations next week. Meanwhile, civilian casualties in Ukraine have spiked, as Russia intensifies its attacks on energy infrastructure.

Stijn Schmitz welcomes Christopher Whalen to the show. Christopher Whalen is an Investment Banker, Author, and Chairman Whalen Global Advisors. The discussion centers on the current economic landscape, with a particular focus on gold, monetary policy, and the future of the global financial system. Whalen argues that the world is in the early stages of a gold up-cycle, primarily driven by central banks increasingly adopting gold as a key reserve asset. He emphasizes that while the US dollar remains crucial for global trade, its dominance is gradually shifting. Whalen provides insights into the current economic challenges, highlighting inflation as a significant concern. He suggests that the federal deficit and monetary expansion are primary drivers of economic instability. The conversation explores the potential for alternative monetary approaches, including gold-linked bonds and revaluing gold stocks, though Whalen remains skeptical about a complete return to a gold standard. Regarding global currency dynamics, Whalen believes the BRICS settlement currency and attempts to challenge the US dollar’s supremacy are unlikely to succeed in the near term. He argues that the dollar’s utility in financing transactions and its widespread acceptance make it difficult to replace. However, he anticipates a gradual decline in the dollar’s global share, moving towards a more multilateral system reminiscent of the pre-World War II era. On investment strategies, Whalen recommends diversification, particularly advocating for 10-20% of portfolios to be allocated to gold. He is cautious about current equity markets, especially tech stocks driven by artificial intelligence hype. The banking sector presents mixed prospects, with consumer banking relatively stable but commercial real estate posing significant challenges. Ultimately, Whalen remains optimistic about the United States’ economic potential. He believes the country’s natural resources, economic flexibility, and inherent strengths will help manage current financial challenges. The discussion concludes with a nuanced view of economic transformation, suggesting adaptation rather than catastrophic decline.

C dans l'air du 26 novembre 2025 - Russie, affaire Epstein: les liaisons dangereuses de TrumpAprès un week-end de pourparlers à Genève sur le plan de paix de Donald Trump, Ukrainiens et Américains se seraient mis d'accord sur un document remanié. Donald Trump a estimé mardi soir qu'il ne restait que « quelques points de désaccord » à régler pour mettre un terme à la guerre en Ukraine. L'émissaire spécial américain Steve Witkoff doit se rendre en Russie pour discuter directement avec Vladimir Poutine de ce plan, réécrit ce week-end avec les Européens. Le Kremlin a confirmé ce mercredi la rencontre la « semaine prochaine », tout en soulignant qu'il est « encore trop tôt » pour parler d'un accord de paix.Parallèlement, aux États-Unis, le média Bloomberg a révélé cette nuit — retranscription téléphonique à l'appui — que Steve Witkoff avait donné des conseils, en octobre dernier, à un conseiller de Vladimir Poutine sur la meilleure manière de présenter au président américain un plan de règlement du conflit en Ukraine. De quoi relancer outre-Atlantique les débats sur l'origine réelle de ce plan de paix qui, même s'il a été amendé ces derniers jours, a mis le feu au Parti républicain.Des sénateurs républicains, dont Roger Wicker et Mike Rounds, dénoncent un plan de paix qu'ils jugent contraire à la tradition américaine de fermeté face à la Russie et l'accusent de légitimer l'agression de Vladimir Poutine. À la Chambre des représentants, d'autres élus, comme Don Bacon, fustigent un texte perçu comme une capitulation imposée à l'Ukraine et affirment qu'il expose Kiev à de nouvelles menaces. Une fronde qui révèle une fracture idéologique majeure au sein du camp Trump, déjà fragilisé par le dossier Epstein. Des divisions au sein du camp présidentiel sont apparues sur fond de cette affaire, au point que Donald Trump a même publiquement rompu avec l'une des figures du mouvement « Make America Great Again », Marjorie Taylor Greene.Alors, quel est le contenu de l'accord de paix en discussion ? Quelles sont les relations entre Donald Trump et Vladimir Poutine ? Le président américain est-il en train de vivre la première crise politique de son second mandat ? Que sait-on également des liens entre Donald Trump et Jeffrey Epstein ? Qu'est-ce que Jmail, la copie de la boîte mail de Jeffrey Epstein consultable en ligne ?À l'approche de Thanksgiving, si le président américain continue de faire le show, d'insulter ses adversaires politiques et de se moquer de journalistes, il semble aller de contrariété en contrariété, y compris devant les tribunaux. La dernière en date a une connotation toute personnelle : les inculpations de deux de ses adversaires politiques honnis, la procureure de New York, Letitia James, et l'ancien patron du FBI, James Comey, ont été annulées lundi 24 novembre pour vice de procédure.

C'est un conflit qui opposait depuis deux ans les autorités maliennes et le groupe minier canadien Barrick Gold à propos de l'exploitation de la mine d'or de Loulo-Gounkoto. « Un chapitre particulièrement tendu des relations entre l'État malien et Barrick Mining Corporation vient de se refermer, pointe le site malien Bamada. Après de longues négociations, des échanges parfois rudes et près de deux années de confrontation juridique et administrative, les deux parties ont annoncé, lundi, à l'hôtel des Finances à Bamako, la conclusion d'un accord global mettant fin à l'ensemble de leurs différends (…). Pour le gouvernement malien, cette issue marque un tournant majeur, relève encore Bamada : le pays espère désormais des retombées économiques estimées à 220 milliards de FCFA par an, un montant qui devrait renforcer durablement les recettes publiques et consolider la transition vers une gestion plus souveraine des ressources naturelles ». 430 millions de dollars « Le compromis prévoit des concessions mutuelles importantes, précise pour sa part Malijet : Barrick Gold s'engage à abandonner son arbitrage en cours auprès du Centre international pour le règlement des différends relatifs aux investissements. En retour, le gouvernement malien s'engage à retirer toutes les accusations portées contre Barrick et à libérer immédiatement quatre de ses employés qui étaient retenus. Par ailleurs, l'accord met fin à la mise sous administration provisoire du complexe Loulo-Gounkoto, restituant le contrôle opérationnel complet à Barrick ». Enfin, précise encore Malijet, « bien que les détails financiers précis du partage des revenus n'aient pas été divulgués, l'accord est expressément aligné sur le nouveau code minier malien, adopté en 2023 ». En fait, d'après Bloomberg news, Barrick Gold a accepté de verser au Mali la somme de 244 milliards de francs CFA, soit 430 millions de dollars. Une somme qui se répartirait de la façon suivante : 144 milliards de FCFA versés dans les 6 jours qui suivent l'accord ; 50 milliards supplémentaires proviendront de compensations de crédits de TVA, tandis qu'un acompte du même montant avait déjà été versé l'année dernière. Une souveraineté retrouvée Et la presse malienne crie victoire… Le site Mali Actu s'enthousiasme : « la résolution de ce bras de fer est cruciale pour notre économie, fortement dépendante des revenus miniers. En janvier dernier, Barrick Gold avait suspendu ses opérations. En juin, un administrateur provisoire avait dû être nommé pour maintenir l'activité. L'accord signé lundi signifie la fin d'un chapitre conflictuel et la relance pleine et entière de la production à Loulo-Gounkoto. Cet épilogue ouvre la voie à une ère de coopération plus sereine et durable, essentielle pour le développement économique du Mali et la pérennité des investissements étrangers dans son secteur minier stratégique ». Et on revient à Bamada qui jubile également. « Cet accord intervient dans un climat régional où plusieurs États — notamment le Mali, le Burkina Faso et le Niger — affirment une volonté commune de reprendre la main sur leurs ressources stratégiques, après des décennies d'exploitation sous des contrats jugés défavorables. (…) Cet accord prouve que le Mali peut obtenir des relations contractuelles équilibrées, imposer le respect de son code minier, et sécuriser des revenus significatifs, relève encore le site malien. Les 220 milliards FCFA attendus chaque année représentent une manne essentielle pour les infrastructures, l'éducation, la santé et la transformation industrielle. Mais au-delà des chiffres, c'est la souveraineté retrouvée qui marque les esprits, s'exclame Bamada. Le Mali ouvre ainsi une nouvelle ère : celle où l'exploitation des ressources n'est plus un terrain de domination, mais un instrument de développement national ». Un secteur stratégique En tout cas, relève SeneNews à Dakar, « pour les deux camps, l'urgence était réelle. Barrick Gold faisait face à un manque à gagner considérable en raison de l'interruption partielle de ses activités sur le site de Loulo-Gounkoto. Et de son côté, rappelle le site sénégalais, le Mali est confronté depuis trois mois à un blocus instauré par des groupes armés affiliés au Jnim, qui entrave les transports, perturbe l'économie et fragilise la production d'or — un secteur stratégique qui représente environ un quart du budget national ».

Changing the culture of a 400,000-person company isn't just hard—it's the kind of transformation most leaders wouldn't even attempt. But when Phil Gilbert joined IBM as General Manager of Design in 2010, that's exactly what he set out to do. And remarkably, he had a lot of success. Visit our Substack for bonus content and more: https://designbetterpodcast.com/p/phil-gilbert Phil led one of the most ambitious design transformations in corporate history, hiring over 1,000 designers, creating IBM's design thinking framework, and embedding a new way of working across nearly 180 countries. Now, with his new book Irresistible Change, Phil is sharing the blueprint for how he did it—and more importantly, how you can apply these lessons to your own organization. In this episode, we talk with Phil about treating change like a high-stakes product, why IBM's transformation was opt-in rather than top-down, and what it takes to win over engineers who've spent decades deeply entrenched in a technical worldview. We also explore the design thinking bootcamp that became legendary within IBM, the intentional design of physical studio spaces, and what happened after Phil left the company. Phil's insights aren't just for those leading massive organizations—they're for anyone trying to spark meaningful change, build enthusiasm without mandates, and create work that actually matters to the people doing it. Bio Phil Gilbert is best known for leading IBM's 21st century transformation as their General Manager of Design. After selling his third startup to IBM in 2010, Phil was asked by IBM in 2012 to use design thinking, coupled with agile, to update how IBM's teams worked. The transformation became the subject of a Harvard Business School case study, the documentary film The Loop, and feature articles in the New York Times, Fortune Magazine, Forbes, Bloomberg, INC and many others. Phil's 45-year career spans startups, large corporations, and board memberships, where he has led organizations ranging from solo ventures to those with 400,000 employees. In 2018 Phil was inducted into the New York Foundation for the Arts' Hall of Fame. In 2019, the State of Oklahoma (Phil's native state) named him an Oklahoma Creativity Ambassador for his achievements in the world of creative thinking and innovation. Phil left full-time operational responsibilities at IBM in 2022 in order to focus on helping the next generation of entrepreneurs, business, and military leaders understand how to impact culture at scale, to improve innovation and team performance. Phil lives in Austin, Texas. *** Premium Episodes on Design Better This ad-supported episode is available to everyone.

In this week's episode of the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast, I talked to Catherine Mattice, the founder/CEO of Civility Partners, an organizational development firm focused on helping organizations create respectful workplace cultures and specializing in turning around toxic cultures. If you left corporate because of a toxic boss or workplace culture, and you're now building your consulting business while still carrying that weight, this episode is for you. Many consultants who transition from corporate are unknowingly shaped by the trauma they experienced, and it shows up in how they price, set boundaries, and show up with clients. In this episode, we unpack what really happens after you leave a toxic environment, why shame keeps so many consultants stuck, and the practical steps you can take to stop letting your former workplace control your new business.   In This Episode:  [00:01:27] Catherine's origin story: From being bullied by a toxic peer in HR to founding Civility Partners and writing four books on workplace culture [00:09:30] The invisible symptoms: How workplace trauma manifests as depression, anxiety, PTSD, and physical illness - even after you've left [00:13:15] Why consultants who experienced toxicity struggle with boundaries, overdeliver, and undercharge with clients [00:17:45] The fawning response: Understanding why you might say yes to everything and how it's keeping you from premium positioning [00:21:30] Taking your power back: Practical advice on therapy, boundary-setting, and rebuilding your relationship with work [00:28:09] The first step to healing: Why acknowledging what happened (without shame) is essential before you can move forward   Key Takeaways:  Workplace trauma doesn't end when you leave. Research shows that prolonged workplace bullying creates symptoms of depression, anxiety, PTSD, and physical illness that persist long after you exit the toxic environment. Your body doesn't automatically know you're safe just because you changed jobs. Fawning is a trauma response - and it's costing you clients. If you experienced a toxic workplace, you may have developed a fawning response (people-pleasing, overdelivering, avoiding conflict). This shows up in your consulting business as underpricing, saying yes to everything, and failing to set boundaries with clients, which undermines your ability to position as a premium strategic advisor. Your consulting business is your chance to do it differently. You have the opportunity to create a business that doesn't mirror the toxic environment you left. This means consciously designing boundaries, workflows, and client relationships that honor your wellbeing - not replicating the overwork and undervaluation you experienced in corporate.   Quotes:  "I think for a lot of people it's hard to sort of admit that their workplace caused so much drama and real trauma for them." - Catherine Mattice "Start changing your self-talk - admit that this happened and that it's not something to be ashamed of. It happens to lots of people. That's why I have a book." - Catherine Mattice "If you don't like what you used to have, don't create a business that mirrors the exact same environment. Aim for more. Know that more is always out there." - Jessica Fearnley   Useful Links Catherine:  CivilityPartners.com Book: Navigating a Toxic Workplace for Dummies Read actionable insights on the Civility Partners blog Jessica: Buy Jessica's book, Too Much, on Amazon Get in touch with Jessica to discuss your consulting business Leave a rating and review for the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast Connect with Jessica on LinkedIn   Guest Bio Catherine Mattice, MA, SPHR, SHRM-SCP, is the founder/CEO of Civility Partners, an organizational development firm focused on helping organizations create respectful workplace cultures and specializing in turning around toxic cultures.

Donate (no account necessary) | Subscribe (account required) Join Bryan Dean Wright, former CIA Operations Officer, as he dives into today's top stories shaping America and the world. In this Monday Headline Brief of The Wright Report, Bryan examines the rising risk of war with Venezuela, secret peace talks over Ukraine, the abduction of Christian schoolchildren in Nigeria, Israel's shifting posture in Gaza and Lebanon, and the domestic political fight over sedition and extremist rhetoric inside the United States government. U.S. and Venezuela Move Closer to War: President Trump authorized covert CIA operations inside Venezuela, prompting the FAA to warn airlines about dangerous conditions in Venezuelan airspace. Reports from Bloomberg, Reuters, and the New York Times confirm GPS jamming and rising military activity. A Russian oil tanker headed for Caracas was turned away twice by the USS Stockdale and is now anchored off Cuba. Bryan notes that the White House still hopes for a peaceful exit by President Maduro, with Colombia offering asylum in exchange for guarantees of no future attempts to kill or arrest him. Trump's Ukraine Peace Plan Faces Pushback: A secret twenty-eight-point peace plan leaked last week, calling for Ukraine to give up parts of the Donbas, reduce its military to six hundred thousand troops, and abandon NATO membership. The plan would also restore economic ties between Russia and the West and release frozen Russian funds for joint rare earth projects. European leaders object, and President Zelenskyy says negotiations must continue, insisting Ukraine needs a larger standing army to deter future invasions. Bryan emphasizes that Trump wants the deal signed by Thanksgiving, warning Zelenskyy that U.S. support may end if he refuses. Ukraine's Deepening Corruption Crisis: Fifteen to thirty percent of aid intended for Ukraine's military and energy needs has been stolen, according to recent reporting. Several allies of Zelenskyy have been arrested, and the president's key aide, Andriy Yermak, is widely suspected of involvement. Ukraine's anti-corruption agency plans more indictments this week, placing Zelenskyy in a weakened negotiating position. Islamists Kidnap Christian Children in Nigeria: Three hundred Christian students were abducted from a Catholic school in central Nigeria. About fifty escaped by fleeing into the forest and hiding until farmers rescued them. Boko Haram and other jihadist factions are believed to be responsible. Bryan warns that these groups aim to build an Islamic caliphate across the Sahel and into the Gulf of Guinea, threatening regional Christians and strategic minerals such as cocoa, iron ore, bauxite, and oil. Trump has warned Nigeria that failure to protect Christians could trigger U.S. military action. Israel Reshapes Gaza and Expands Strikes in Lebanon: U.S. troops are withdrawing from Gaza's coordination center. Israeli, Arab, and vetted Palestinian officials will manage reconstruction in a new "Green Zone," while unvetted Palestinians remain in a devastated area controlled by Hamas. Polling shows Hamas' support has risen inside Gaza, meaning roughly half the population may remain under militant control. Israel also intensified operations in Lebanon, killing Hezbollah's top military commander in a drone strike despite an ongoing ceasefire. Jewish Extremists Spark Crisis in the West Bank: Prime Minister Netanyahu convened emergency meetings after Jewish extremists torched Palestinian homes and cars in a village attack. Israeli officials say about two hundred seventy young men are responsible for the most recent incidents and vow to act. Sedition Caucus Escalates Rhetoric Against Trump: Former CIA, FBI, and military officials who now serve as Democrats in Congress released a video urging service members to resist unlawful orders from President Trump. Senator Elissa Slotkin admitted she knows of no unlawful orders but says such orders might come. Bryan calls the effort a psychological operation designed to sow confusion inside the military. Legal experts warn that service members who refuse lawful orders could face court-martial and prison. Trump Meets NYC's Socialist Mayor Elect: Zohran Mamdani met with President Trump on Friday, and the two agreed on issues such as electricity costs and housing. Mamdani later repeated his belief that Trump is a fascist and a Nazi, prompting Republican leaders like Elise Stefanik to call Mamdani a jihadist with a long documented history of radical associations. Bryan argues the evidence strongly supports Stefanik's view and warns against normalizing Mamdani's ideology. Eric Swalwell Runs for Governor of California: Representative Swalwell announced his campaign on Jimmy Kimmel Live, promising to lead the "Resistance" against Trump. Bryan revisits the long-running Chinese influence operation that targeted young California Democrats, including Swalwell, and raises questions about whether the FBI ever thoroughly investigated the network linked to his former associate Fang Fang. Good News in Medicine: Japanese researchers found that the amino acid arginine significantly reduced Alzheimer's-related plaque and inflammation in animal studies. Dosing remains experimental, but Bryan notes it could offer a promising option for families exploring right-to-try pathways.   "And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." - John 8:32   Put a smile on your face and give joy to your taste buds… Give Masa and Vandy beef tallow chips a try today!

James Lamdin is a sage voice of reason and experience in the vintage watch market. He's earned those titles through his years in the business. A co-founder of the OG collector meetup RedBar Group, Lamdin went on to found Analog Shift, the vintage and pre-owned dealer acquired by Watches of Switzerland (also the parent company of Hodinkee) in 2020. In a conversation recorded live in front of an audience at UBS House of Craft in New York City in October, Lamdin breaks down the vintage and pre-owned watch market, how we got here, where we've been, and where we're likely going. He also gives plenty of useful insight on what it means for a second-hand watch to be truly authenticated and how collectors need to stay curious to get the most out of their watch-collecting journey. Lamdin proves himself a wealth of knowledge when it comes to used timepieces and what anyone should be thinking about when they're considering buying pre-owned. We had a blast recording this episode, especially taking questions from the audience.

This week’s guest – Tim Knight – a self proclaimed Permabear. NEW! Download the AI Generated Show Notes (Guest Segment) Tim Knight has been charting and trading since 1987. His first stock trade was, in fact, on October 19, 1987 – the day of the crash – which perhaps goes a long way explaining his disposition toward bearishness. He has been involved in personal computers since late 1979 and, starting at age 16, began writing a couple dozen books about using and programming computers. His most recent writing has been focused on charting and the history of financial markets, including his newest books, Panic, Prosperity, and Progress, and, more recently, Silicon Valley Babble On and Solid State, his first novel. He has been running Slope since March 29 2005 and has, during that time, written more than 30,000 posts on the site. In 1992 Knight founded Prophet, a web-based technical analysis company that was acquired by Investools (and, later, Ameritrade) in January 2005. Tim served as Senior Vice President of Technology for Investools from 2005 through 2010. Both Barron's & Forbes consistently named Prophet the #1 website for technical analysis.

The show opens with a sharp rundown of the White House scrambling to contain the fallout from President Trump’s Truth Social post calling for Democratic lawmakers to face sedition charges “punishable by death.” Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt tried to soften the message, but critics and the RSMS crew weren’t buying it—especially after Trump snapped at Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey, calling her “piggy,” continuing his long history of demeaning women. In entertainment chatter, Gary with Da Tea dove into Bravo chair Frances Berwick hinting that both Kenya Moore and a long-awaited Nene Leakes return to RHOA are “not off the table,” which had the cast cutting up. A standout moment came when certified sex and intimacy coach Tana C. Gilmore joined the crew to talk holiday dating — from matching pajamas to avoiding messy Thanksgiving questions — while Ricky hilariously went off about women ignoring friendly gestures at gas stations and stoplights. The episode closed on a heartfelt note as Chadwick Boseman was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, celebrated by his widow Simone, Ryan Coogler, and Viola Davis. Simone’s tribute, reflecting on his kindness, brilliance, and dedication even while privately battling cancer, left both the studio and listeners moved.

One of the top trending topics today was STILL “Peggy," days after the “Did President Trump call a reporter Piggy” controversy. That’s because GROK is insisting that Trump said “Quiet, quiet Peggy” referring to Bloomberg reporter Peggy Collins, not to the actual reporter Catherine Lucey who asked Trump the Epstein question he didn’t want to answer. But it’s Trump himself, in the White House official statement, that puts the issue to bed, but why is no one taking issue with what Trump insists was an appropriate reaction to rude behavior.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Adriana Kugler broke the central bank's rules regarding stock trading, according to a report released by the U.S. Government Ethics Office. - Now we know why she abruptly resigned a few months ago - That disclosure shows two kinds of violations of Fed rules regarding financial transactions by senior officials at the central bank: purchases of stocks of individual companies, as opposed to mutual funds; and purchases of securities during so-called “blackout periods” leading up to and after Federal Open Market Committee meetings. - Oh - Supposedly her husband did it - but come on! - Fed losing more credibility - this is not the first time....

This is a warning signal of trouble, but trouble does not always come. What is fair to say is that Hindenburg Omen signals have appeared at every major stock market top going back several decades. - According to Tom McClellan: The current count of 5 signals is not as big as some other clusters. But we got 4 signals in a cluster at the end of 2021, ahead of the 2022 bear market. So 4 is enough, if the market is inclined to live up to this warning. And 2 signals were enough back in December 2024 and March 2025 to tell us about the trouble in the market which unfolded in the April 2025 tariff reaction minicrash. But 5 is better.
