Join Annie Sargent and Elyse Rivin as they dive deep into the tragic and brilliant life of Vincent van Gogh. This episode isn't just about his iconic paintings—it's about the man behind the masterpieces. Elyse, with her deep knowledge of art history and her gift for storytelling, guides us through Van Gogh's tumultuous journey. From his early struggles in the Netherlands to his transformative years in France, we explore how his experiences shaped his art—and how his art, in turn, shaped the world. Listen to this episode ad-free Van Gogh's life was marked by failure, rejection, and mental health struggles. Elyse explains how these challenges fueled his creativity. As a young man, he tried—and failed—at careers as an art dealer, a preacher, and even a Bible translator. His family didn't know what to do with him, and his father even considered sending him to a mental hospital. But it was his brother, Theo, who became his lifeline. Theo provided financial and emotional support, allowing Vincent to focus on painting. This support gave him the freedom to experiment, leading to the bold, vibrant style we associate with him today. Paris was a turning point for Van Gogh. Elyse paints a vivid picture of his time there, living in Montmartre, meeting artists like Toulouse-Lautrec and Pissarro, and discovering new techniques. He hated the city at first, but over time, he began to embrace its energy. His move to Arles was another pivotal moment. He dreamed of creating an artists' colony there, but his relationship with Gauguin ended in disaster. Despite the chaos, this period was incredibly productive. He painted masterpieces like Starry Night Over the Rhône and Sunflowers. After his breakdown in Arles, Van Gogh was committed to an asylum in Saint-Rémy-de-Provence. Elyse's account of this time is heartbreaking yet inspiring. He continued to paint, creating some of his most famous works, including Wheat Fields and more versions of Starry Night. His final days in Auvers-sur-Oise were marked by relentless painting and a tragic end. This episode isn't just about art—it's about humanity, perseverance, and the cost of genius.

In this episode, Eric Coffie lays out the tough truth about why so many small businesses stay stuck after getting certified. He calls out the excuses holding entrepreneurs back and shows what separates the winners from the watchers. From GSA schedules and sources sought to consulting partnerships and funded agency strategies, Eric gives a blueprint for creating your own success — even during uncertainty. He shares real examples, like a contractor who won eight out of ten recent projects as sole-source awards, and explains how consulting can generate income without any risk. This isn't about waiting for opportunities — it's about getting in the game, leveraging relationships, and taking ownership of your results. Key Takeaways: Stop waiting for contracts — create your own opportunities through sources sought and networking. Consulting can be your zero-risk gateway to re-enter the market and build deal flow. Agencies like the VA and GSA are still funding — the money hasn't stopped; only your action has.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA TRACS, Today's Class, KUKUI, and Pit Crew Loyalty Watch Full Video Episode The automotive industry faces a growing crisis: as veteran trainers and educators retire, there's no clear path for the next generation to replace them. Creating quality training is time-intensive — often taking months to develop just one class — and the personal sacrifices required have deterred many from stepping up. This episode explores the urgent need to evolve automotive education, from rethinking long-form classes to developing shorter, high-impact sessions that better fit today's learning styles. At the heart of the conversation is a proposed solution: an industry “Trainer Boot Camp” designed to teach aspiring educators not only technical knowledge but also the art of presentation — structure, flow, delivery, and audience engagement. Another proposed solution is the creation of a Train the Trainers Scholarship to fund legacy educators like John Thornton and Scot Manna to design and lead this new initiative. Modeled after the WWE's NXT Performance Center, the idea is to proactively cultivate new education “superstars” rather than waiting for them to appear on their own. This is more than a conversation about teaching — it's a call to action to preserve and reinvent the future of automotive education before the knowledge gap becomes irreversible.

The future of arts and culture depends on leaders who can innovate, adapt, and inspire—and Deborah Rutter has been doing it at the highest levels. With five decades of experience leading premier cultural institutions across the United States, she knows what it takes to drive meaningful change while keeping artists and audiences at the center.  In this live episode from Boot Camp 2025, the former President of the Kennedy Center and current Vice Provost for the Arts at Duke University shares lessons from her career on leading through periods of transformational growth and building the financial and operational resilience needed to sustain our organizations.   

In this episode, Eric Coffie calls out the biggest myth in GovCon—that there aren't enough opportunities. He breaks down why lawyers, accountants, and even other small business owners already have the inside track on contracts, acquisitions, and partnerships—you're just not asking. From unused GSA schedules to overflow projects from busy contractors, Eric exposes how many deals are hiding in plain sight. The problem isn't access—it's action. If you're serious about teaming, scaling, and winning, this episode is your reminder to get out of your house, get in the room, and start talking to the people who already have what you want. Key Takeaways: Relationships with lawyers, accountants, and service providers = untapped deal flow. Many GSA schedule holders aren't using them—team up and put them to work. The biggest barrier isn't opportunity; it's your willingness to show up and ask.

This week, our country celebrated two big days! We celebrated Veterans Day this past Tuesday, and this past Monday was the United States Marine Corps' 250th birthday!

In this episode, I sit down with Earl Bergey, Sales Manager at Decorah Chevrolet, who went from turning wrenches as a technician to running the floor as a sales leader. Earl breaks down exactly how he built a book of business that consistently brings him 8–10 repeat sales a month, even during an inventory crisis.We talk about what really separates average salespeople from top performers, how to survive low inventory markets, and why treating customers like family isn't just talk—it's the key to long-term success.If you're stuck at the same number month after month… this episode is your wake-up call.

Esop deluje tako, da lastnik proda delež zadrugi zaposlenih, odplačevanje odkupa pa poteka iz razpoložljivega denarnega toka podjetja. Zaposleni tako postanejo delničarji podjetja, v katerem delajo, in so lahko udeleženi v dobičku prek izplačila dividend. Ne delajo več le za plačo, ampak tudi za dobiček, ki se pošteno deli mednje. Njihov finančni vložek je omejen na 300 evrov, njihova odgovornost pa veliko večja – gre za zavezo pripadnosti, učinkovitosti in soodločanja. Kaj ta model dejansko pomeni, kako se razlikuje od menedžerskih odkupov in zakaj so prvi kandidati zanj prav družinska podjetja z izzivi nasledstva? Kako je mogoče, da podjetje odkupi samo sebe prek denarnega toka? In zakaj je pri tem finančna pismenost zaposlenih ključna? V epizodi razčlenimo, kako deluje inkluzivni kapitalizem v praksi, kje se je model v tujini izkazal in kaj bi lahko pomenil za slovenski trg dela ter lastništva v naslednjem desetletju.

In this episode, Eric Coffie delivers a wake-up call to small business owners chasing government contracts but skipping the rooms that create them. He lays out proof: multimillion-dollar contractors, agency insiders, and program directors from NASA, DOD, SBA, and the Department of State have all shown up to help—yet most small businesses never do. Eric breaks down how relationships with lawyers, accountants, and service providers can open doors to major opportunities and why showing up is still the most underrated growth strategy in GovCon. Key Takeaways: Stop waiting for access—you're being invited and not showing up. Relationships with service providers = insider introductions. The real ROI is in the room, not in the replay.

In this episode, Eric Coffie delivers a hard truth: government contracting has always been a relationship business—and the only reason most small businesses are missing out is because they're not showing up. Eric breaks down how power players build connections with decision-makers, why networking is non-negotiable, and how intentional events—not random parties—create million-dollar opportunities. He challenges listeners to stop doubting and start doing, because every contract starts with a conversation. Key Takeaways: Relationships drive results—your network is your pipeline. Show up where decisions are made; proximity creates opportunity. Doubt doesn't pay—action and visibility do.

In this episode, Eric Coffie calls out the small business owners sitting on the sidelines while major primes like SAIC and KPMG openly ask for help. He shares real examples of entrepreneurs winning contracts by acting fast—like selling to prisons, joining state vendor pools, and teaming with larger firms. The truth? Opportunities are everywhere, but most people talk themselves out of trying. Key Takeaways: Big primes need small business partners—don't wait for an invite. Vendor pools and local contracts are hidden goldmines. The underdog wins by acting when everyone else hesitates.

In this episode of The Eric Coffie Show, Eric breaks down how small business owners can stay proactive and profitable—even during a government shutdown. He exposes the dangerous mindset of self-doubt that keeps entrepreneurs from acting and shows why focusing on funded agencies, tracking real contract data, and calling award winners are game-changing moves. Eric shares real examples from his own experience proving that contracts are still being awarded every day — and how persistence separates those who win from those who watch others win. Key Takeaways: Focus where the money flows: Target agencies that are still funded and awarding contracts despite shutdowns. Call award winners: Don't assume doors are closed — real outreach creates new opportunities. Fix your mindset: Stop telling yourself "they already have someone." Winners stay hungry, persistent, and visible.

George Curleigh has been president of Red Wing's heritage division since 2019, in which time he's been able to enjoy a list of very fun things including a worldwide pandemic, a factory shut-down, a cyber-attack, a periodically dwindling labor force, a broken supply chain for US-made components, and his OWN CHILDREN stealing his boots. So what's the general feeling in Red Wing, Minnesota, according to George? Actually pretty fantastic. Retail expansion is going hugely well, especially in Asia. The European and North American markets are showing a ton of strength. A new factory recently came online. And after a massive contraction, a flurry of new styles are being released, and old classics everyone wants revived. We get into all of that, plus why Red Wing buried a time capsule full of boots and manufacturing instructions to be dug up in 120 years, how that endeavor led to realizing Red Wing founder Charles Beckman survived a deadly shipwreck off Nova Scotia back in the 1900s, what it was like coming to old-school-as-it-comes Red Wing from Arc'teryx, one off the world's most technologically driven apparel companies, how to get people loving working in a boot factory, and why that aforementioned time when his son swiped his 875s was actually a hugely meaningful moment, in the best way.  Support the Shoecast, get full bonus episode access, and join the most interesting shoe-and-boot-loving community on the internet with a Stitchdown Premium membershiphttps://www.stitchdown.com/join-stitchdown-premium/Check out our site!https://www.stitchdown.com/2025 dates and location for Stitchdown's Boot Camp 3—the world's fair of shoes and boots and leather and more—coming soon.https://www.stitchdownbootcamp.com/

Tako pravi dolgoletni borznik Zlatko Turkovic, avtor knjige Modri investitor - praktični primeri. Obrestne mere bodo narekovale tempo dogajanja, zloma zato ni na vidiku. "Nihajem od 10 do 15 odstotkov ne dajem večje pozornosti," pravi Turkovic. Dnevna nihanja tečajev so v tej fazi cikla bolj hrup kot signal. Trg se odziva na stavke, ton glasu in celo mimiko šefa ameriške centralne banke Jeroma Powlla, a resni premiki prihajajo s spremembo stroška kapitala. Če denar postopno postaja cenejši, se lahko tudi začasni strah razpusti precej hitreje, kot bi si mislili. To pa ne pomeni, da je kupovanje padcev (buy the dip) univerzalna strategija. V takih okoljih se razlike med izvrstnimi, dobrimi in slabimi podjetji samo še bolj razkrijejo, pravi Turkovic.

Today's guest, Robert Miller, brings a rare 360° GovCon perspective—15 years in government (Peace Corps → Capitol Hill → White House → CIA) followed by eight years in defense tech and AI sales. Rob led federal sales at Hawkeye 360 and CrowdAI (acquired in 2023) and now oversees $75M ARR across three divisions at a major defense contractor. In this episode, we break down how startups can truly win in federal: navigating product-market fit, cost-to-close, and working with large primes; using tools like SAM.gov, ARC, and Vulcan; and building mission-driven teams and Hill relationships. Rob also shares insights from his book Startup Statesmanship, a hands-on guide for founders entering GovCon. Key Takeaways Focus your ICP and go deep. Pick a tight segment + ideal customer profile and build depth (relationships, use-cases) before expanding. Master the economics. Rigor on cost-to-close and delivery—especially on firm-fixed-price R&D—wins or loses your margin in scoping. Protect your IP with primes. Use NDAs and teaming terms (workshare/rev-share), and share only what's necessary to win—not to be cloned.

In this thought-provoking episode, we tackle one of the biggest economic and societal shifts of our lifetime — artificial intelligence. The guest draws bold comparisons between AI and past revolutionary inventions like the steam engine and electricity, calling it a massive game changer that will reshape productivity, the job market, and even global wealth distribution. While AI promises innovation and lower costs, it also carries the risk of deepening inequality and triggering widespread job displacement, especially in the services sector. From coders to data scientists, the future belongs to those who can adapt, quantify, and forecast in an AI-driven world. Key Takeaways: AI's impact rivals past industrial revolutions. It's transforming productivity, costs, and economic structures faster than any previous technology. Winners and losers ahead. Expect deflationary effects, job losses in white-collar sectors, and widening inequality unless governments respond wisely. Future-proof skills matter. Strong math, coding, and data science capabilities will define who thrives in an AI-dominated economy.

In today's episode, we dive deep into leadership, legacy, and lessons from one of the Air Force's top decision-makers. Reflecting on his tenure, he shared the three major accomplishments that shaped the force's trajectory — from advancing modernization through $100 billion in operational imperatives to restructuring training and investment systems for great power competition. Perhaps most importantly, he instilled a sense of urgency across the Air and Space Forces — a mindset shift recognizing the need to move faster against near-peer threats like China. Yet, he also warns that current "efficiency" cuts and forced talent exits risk undoing progress, creating readiness gaps, and draining critical expertise when it's needed most. Key Takeaways: Modernization with purpose: Seven operational imperatives focused on resilience, technology, and modernization to strengthen U.S. readiness against China. Cultural transformation: Re-optimizing the Air Force for great power competition to improve agility, training, and decision-making. Leadership warning: Current waves of cuts and forced retirements threaten to weaken readiness and morale, undoing years of strategic progress.

Today's discussion hits home for entrepreneurs and small business owners navigating this volatile economy. While large corporations like Microsoft or JPMorgan are setting market highs, small caps remain stuck in correction—mirroring the reality for Main Street. The biggest threat? Monetary policy, not fiscal policy. With interest rates still 125 basis points above equilibrium, small businesses—who rely on bank lending, not Wall Street debt—are being crushed by rising borrowing costs. Until the Fed loosens, many are fighting for survival, managing shrinking cash flows, and tightening credit. The question now: can they hold on long enough for rates to finally drop? Key Takeaways: High rates are killing small businesses. Unlike large firms, small companies can't issue debt—they depend on lenders, and current rates are unsustainable. Fed delay = real pain. Despite inflation cooling, the Fed's slow action threatens to starve small businesses before relief arrives. Recession resilience matters. With growth slowing and credit tightening, cash flow management—not expansion—is the key to surviving 2025's economic squeeze.

Today we dig into the hard truths of small-business innovation in defense: most startups won't sell end items—they'll be 1st– or 2nd-tier subs whose tech is embedded in a prime's system. We unpack why founders fear losing IP to primes (and why we need better mechanisms than today's SBIR handoffs), where OCONUS opportunities really exist (think F-35 supply-chain niches and vetted foreign subsidiaries—limited but real), and why talent acquisition is make-or-break. Bottom line: protect your IP, read every teaming/NDA, know when aviation or cleared work changes your risk—and recruit serious S&E horsepower if you want to matter. Key Takeaways: IP first. Most small firms will be subs; use defensible NDAs/teaming terms and SBIR data-rights to avoid handing your crown jewels to primes. OCONUS is niche. Foreign buys happen (e.g., F-35 components), but protectionist policies mean smaller budgets and tougher entry—win with differentiated tech. Talent is strategy. Deep science & engineering capability (think Caltech/MIT-level rigor) remains the decisive edge for modernization programs.
