Send a textTired of AI that adds noise instead of value? We open the doors to the ICABA AI Accelerator, a four‑week sprint designed to help professionals reclaim 20+ hours a month, scale content that sounds like them, and build authority through human‑led systems. Rather than flood you with demos, we focus on judgment, workflows, and data—so AI works for you, not the other way around.We start by resetting how you think about tools. Abdul Muhammad introduces a simple framework—augment, decide, act—that puts human values and context first. You'll learn why clarity beats speed and how to design everyday workflows that reduce cognitive load and deliver consistent results. Then, Nilda Thomas maps the ten core skills of the AI‑ready professional and leads a hands‑on lab to craft a practical 90‑day plan. Expect clear priorities, role‑based prompts, and a policy‑minded approach that fits real workloads.Next, we go deep on brand and personalization. Your Brand, Your Voice, Your GPT shows you how to train AI with your assets—PDFs, decks, tone, and goals—so your assistant understands who you are and what you're building. We also widen the lens beyond ChatGPT to explore where different platforms shine, helping you choose a small, purposeful stack that aligns with your work, wellness, and risk profile. Finally, Stephanie demystifies data quality, ownership, and IP, then lays out simple governance and legal guardrails to protect your organization without slowing innovation. Clean inputs, clear policies, and auditable workflows transform AI from a liability into leverage.If you want authority over automation, personalization over generic answers, and outcomes over hype, this session is your roadmap. Subscribe, share with a colleague who needs clarity, and leave a review telling us the one workflow you want to fix next.Thanks for tuning in to this episode of Follow The Brand!

Send a textIn this bonus episode of the Kindness Matters podcast, host Mike Rathbun dives into one of the core ideas from his book Still Changing a World: Small Acts Of Kindness That Make A Big Difference; kindness is not neutral—it is courageous. He explores why neutrality is passive while kindness is an active, often costly choice that can require comfort, convenience, and even approval. Mike reads a powerful section from the book that unpacks how kindness asks us to stay human in dehumanizing moments, choose compassion over convenience, hold boundaries without cruelty, and interrupt harm even when it's uncomfortable. Speaking directly to those who feel tired, overwhelmed, or tempted to go quiet, he offers validation and hope, reminding listeners that they don't have to be loud to be brave or fix everything to matter. This episode is an invitation to keep showing up as yourself, consistently, even when the emotional cost feels high.Who This Episode Is ForAnyone who cares deeply but feels emotionally worn down by division and harshness.People who don't want to match the cruelty they see but aren't sure how to stay open.Listeners wondering if their quiet, consistent kindness still makes a difference.Grab the book on Amazon (available in either Kindle or Paperback format).Take the Next StepIf this episode spoke to you, consider sharing it—or the book—with someone who is tired but hasn't given up yet. Let it be a reminder that choosing kindness, again and again, is one of the bravest things we can do.Support the show

Adversity has a way of asking one simple question: Will you trust who you are becoming more than what you're currently facing or feeling? Being brave doesn't mean you aren't afraid. It means you choose to stand anyway. It means you take the next step when the path feels uncertain. ResourcesJennifer's website

1) Best coaching advice you've gotten“It doesn't have to be anything.”Let go of outcomes to make room for discovery.Presence creates space clients rarely experience.Coaching works precisely because nothing is being driven. 2) What are you still trying to improve about your coaching?Communicating the value of coaching in the marketplace.Calling in the right people, not everyone.Refining the “howl” so the wolves answer.Balancing intention with non-attachment. 3) Most outrageous thing you've done, tried, or said in a session?Saying the thing politeness says not to say.Naming contradictions clients don't realize they voiced.Choosing courage over being liked.Trusting that bravery serves the client, not the ego. 4) What still makes you squirm or feel uncomfortable?Realizing you misunderstood where the client was going.Moments of energetic or values mismatch.Knowing a client is thrilled while you're quietly dreading sessions.Recognizing when it's not a good fit. 5) Advice for someone new to coachingGet serious about the business side early.Don't confuse caring with giving it away.Channel generosity intentionally (not randomly).Coaching is a profession, not a hobby with invoices. 6) Something you had to conquer to become a great coachThe need to rescue or make things better.Staying in your lane when therapy is needed.Knowing your edges and referring out.Letting clients have their stuff without taking it from them. 7) How are you using AI in your coaching practice?To get to people faster, not replace connection.For thinking partners, not final answers.Designing processes and exploring ideas.Speed to relationship, not content automation. 8) What have you learned about yourself through coaching?Messy you is still a gift.Perfection is optional, presence isn't.Emotions carry wisdom when welcomed.Sharing beats performing every time. Fun Stuff Question: Favorite mealIt's never about the food alone.Conversation is the real main course.Care, intention, and presence matter more than the menu.A great meal is a shared experience, not a transaction.
Caller Welcome jumps in as a real-life case study of having kids under 30 - and it sparks a heated but honest debate.He shares that he had two kids young while still figuring life out - getting fired from jobs, working warehouse and retail roles, and leaning on the stability of living at his partner's parents' home. He's transparent that he didn't have it all together and had to “buckle up” after messing up.The hosts push back hard:They highlight that his situation isn't the norm - he had a safety net many don't.They question whether his story proves it's wise to have kids early, or just shows how much support and luck matter.They challenge the idea that people can easily replicate his path without similar privilege.The real turning point is when his partner joins the call. She explains:She stayed because his struggles felt like a blip, not his character.She set clear boundaries and ultimatums.She weighed the full relationship, not just the rough period.Financial strain was short-term, but emotionally it was tough.That reframes the story from “young parent success” to “two people navigating chaos with commitment and support.”Core takeaway:Welcome's story isn't a blueprint - it's a reminder that early parenthood often survives on support systems, patience, and a partner willing to ride through instability. Without that, the same story could easily go left.► YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/@TheDayAfterTNB► SPOTIFY: https://open.spotify.com/show/0vkTPwat1n6y7l3MOfjQcf?si=0e7daa6ca317441e ► PATREON: https://www.patreon.com/cw/THENEWBLXCK► DISCORD: https://discord.com/invite/thenewblxck► WEBSITE: https://thenewblxck.com► STORE: https://thenewblxck.store► DILEMMA? https://www.thenewblxck.com/dilemma► EMAIL: thedayafter@thenewblxck.com► CLICK HERE TO GET SHARES IN THE NEW BLXCK - https://app.seedlegals.com/en/pitch/c_VoSPUCwhTo/The-New-BlxckANY QUESTIONS ABOUT THIS INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY?

Kapil Gupta, former Enterprise AI Product & Platform Leader at Cigna, shares insights from more than two decades of turning cutting-edge technology into enterprise-ready products. He unpacks the difference between generative AI and agentic AI, and why governance, user choice, and thoughtful design matter just as much as innovation. Learn how enterprises can scale responsibly and why the best technology often feels invisible to the people using it. Key Takeaways: The tangible difference between generative AI and agent-based workflows Why adoption depends on fitting into existing workflows, rather than forcing behavior change The challenge of legacy systems and disconnected data How companies can innovate quickly without introducing unnecessary risk How pushing back, probing, and questioning AI can unlock more value Why listening to users matters more than building flashy features Guest Bio: Kapil Gupta is an executive product leader specializing in leveraging emerging technologies to solve complex business problems at scale.

Learn more about Michael Wenderoth, Executive Coach: www.changwenderoth.comMost leaders were taught to leave their emotions at the door. Today's guest says that advice isn't just outdated — it's costly. In this episode of 97% Effective, host Michael Wenderoth sits down with Dina Denham Smith, executive coach and bestselling author of Emotionally Charged, to unpack why emotional skill is now a core leadership capability, not a “soft” add-on. Drawing on behavioral science and her work as an executive coach and strategic advisor, Dina explains why emotions are data, how leaders unknowingly perform massive emotional labor, and what it really takes to manage triggers, prevent burnout, and unlock performance. As Dina puts it: “Emotions are money.” By the end of this conversation, you'll see why ignoring emotions is bad for you and bad for business – and what to do instead.SHOW NOTESDina's story — and why this work mattersOne surprising thing about Dina you won't find on the internetHow Emotionally Charged would have helped Dina earlier in her own careerWhat sparked Dina's interest in the science of emotionsHow the pandemic and technology shifts dramatically increased the emotional demands placed on leadersCore ideas from Emotionally ChargedThe key takeaway: Emotions are information“Emotions are money”: how feelings directly translate into performance, retention, and resultsThe biggest myth Dina wants to retire: that emotions get in the way of good business decisionsWhat “emotional labor” really means — and why research shows leaders perform as much of it as customer service professionals (and in more complex ways)The three layers of every emotion: physiology, cognition, and behaviorWhy suppressing emotions is like trying to hold beach balls underwater Practical tools you can use immediatelyBeach balls, masks, and “letting it all hang out”: finding the right balance at workWhy expanding your emotional vocabulary dramatically improves self-regulationDina's BRAVE framework for managing triggers in real time: Breathe, Refocus, Accept, Verbalize, Engage Restoration (not “self-care”): four evidence-based ways leaders recover from emotional strain: Detachment, Relaxation, Mastery, Control Power, leadership, and team cultureWhy leaders consistently underestimate their emotional impactHow power amplifies everything you feel and showWhy everyone cues off their leader's emotional signals (often unconsciously)How leaders can normalize emotional expression on their teams — without turning meetings into complaint sessionsSimple ways managers can reset emotional culture inside their own sphere of influenceDina's reminder: emotional skills are learnable — and improvable at any stage of your career. BIO AND LINKSDina Denham Smith is an executive coach and strategic advisor who helps senior leaders build their capacity, scale their impact, and thrive in complexity.

Resilience isn't made of heroic leaps forward, it's built from the small, everyday choice to keep going, even when the path ahead isn't clear. In this episode, host Peter Fenger sits down with Renee Zukin, educator, writer, and mental health advocate with over 20 years of experience using the written word as a tool for self-transformation and empowerment. Renee is a contributing author to “Navigating the Clickety-Clack: How to Live a Peace-filled Life in a Seemingly Toxic World”, and her newly released memoir, “Every Day, I'm Brave: Cultivating Resilience to Gain Freedom from Fear”, explores how compassion, courage, and resilience can loosen fear's grip on our lives. Passionate about creating safe spaces for growth and healing, Renee helps others find clarity, connection, and bravery in the ordinary moments of life. Together, Peter and Renee explore the journey behind “Every Day I Am Brave”, how journaling and self-compassion support us through uncertainty, and the everyday practices that help us move beyond fear and toward deeper courage and connection.

Matthew Spriegel, CEO and founder of Atium, shares his fascinating journey from spending 12 years in China to developing a cutting-edge behavioural change technology for frontline workers. Matthew explains how Atium uses gamification, AI-driven playbooks, and a "TikTok-style" micro-learning approach to boost employee engagement and operational efficiency in sectors like hospitality. He dives deep into the necessity of a growth mindset, the importance of niche-focused scalability, and how embracing a sense of curiosity can transform both personal identity and business trajectory. You'll Learn Why: Micro-learning is the future for the forgotten workforce of frontline employees. Owning a vertical is the secret sauce to scaling a tech startup globally. AI is an opportunity for human enhancement rather than a threat to job security. Complementary partnerships are the best cure for shiny penny syndrome in entrepreneurs. Curiosity-led leadership can bridge cultural gaps and mend complex personal relationships. This episode is living proof that no matter where you're starting from — or what life throws at you — it's never too late to be brave, bold, and unlock your inner brilliant.

Pastor Kevin preaches this week on "Brave Faith In Difficult Times" from 1 Chronicles 11:22-25.
“Midlife is not the beginning of the end — it's the beginning of alignment.”Today, I'm in this milestone of 200th episodes of The BraveHearted Woman Podcast, and I'm reflecting on nearly five years, 200 conversations, and countless lessons I've learned while walking alongside brave, bold women navigating midlife. This episode is both a celebration and a heartfelt message to every woman who feels stuck, hesitant, or afraid to step into her next season.I share what 200 episodes have taught me about midlife transformation, reinvention, and confidence — starting with this truth: playing small always costs more than being brave. Midlife is not the beginning of the end; it's the beginning of alignment. It's a season where clarity increases, courage is required, and ignoring your calling becomes more painful than answering it.In this solo episode, I talk honestly about fear — how it whispers, sounds reasonable, and keeps so many women delaying their dreams. I address the lies that tell us it's too late, that our best years are behind us, or that someone else is more qualified. I've learned that fear, not age or lack of resources, is the real enemy of midlife growth and purpose.I also share what I've witnessed in hundreds of interviews with courageous women: women who have faced abuse, loss, incarceration, health challenges, menopause, career upheaval, and identity shifts — yet still chose bravery. I've learned that courage isn't a personality trait; it's something we cultivate through small, faithful decisions made one step at a time.This episode speaks directly to women over 40 and 50 who are longing for clarity, confidence, and purpose. Whether you're considering a midlife career change, starting over at 50, launching a business, or redefining success and joy in this season, I remind you that there is no perfect time — only the decision to move forward.As I reflect on 200 episodes, I talk about consistency, obedience, and showing up even when it felt uncomfortable or uncertain. I share why regret is far heavier than the risk of trying, why we don't outgrow our calling, but we do outgrow our containers, and why endings are often necessary for new beginnings in midlife.This episode is an invitation to stop waiting, stop shrinking, and stop negotiating with fear. You don't need to leap — you just need to decide. One brave step can change the entire trajectory of your life.After 200 episodes, my question to you is the same as it's always been: Is it time for you to find your brave and live your dreams?Timestamps:0:00 - Intro1:11 - This is my 200th episode!!1:52 - Why our brains resist change3:33 - How midlife is not the end, but a new beginning5:09 - Lesson #1: Playing small always costs more than being brave7:18 - Lesson #2: Many midlife women decide to play small9:36 - Lesson #3: Many women are afraid to be invisible in midlife transition12:20 - Lesson #4: Midlife women can do hard things14:29 - Lesson #5: There is no right time19:40 - Lesson #6: You don't outgrow your calling20:53 - Questions to ask yourself todayQuotations:“Procrastination has a price tag, and many women are paying for it with their calling.”“Courage is not a personality trait; it's something you cultivate.”“Regret is heavier than the risk of doing something afraid.”“Brave doesn't mean reckless — it means responsive to the calling you feel.”“One obedience step can change the...
From years spent as a backup singer for the Moody Blues, Sarah McLachlan, Melissa Etheridge, and Janiva Magness to releasing her albums “Redeemed” and “Walking Around This Town,” Bernie Barlow has had quite the music career. In this episode, we dive into her time with these musical legends and how this influenced her as an artist. She talks about her recent release, “Walking Around This Town,” and the people she worked with to make it happen. She talks about the stories contained within the songs and the most meaningful tracks. And of course, we learn about what she has planned down the road. Closing out this interview is “Brave,” which I enjoyed so much, I had to check out the rest of the album. Like what you heard? Then visit www.berniebarlow.com.

Faithful little steps that give your brain something solid to hold onto. Proof that says, We've done hard things before. We can do this again. Confidence isn't the prerequisite. It's the fruit of showing up long before you feel ready. Most of us stay stuck because we're waiting to feel qualified, healed, calm, or magically fearless. We dress it up and call it wisdom, strategy, or “just praying about it a little longer.” But deep down, we know the truth: that perfect, confident moment we're hoping for never actually arrives. Confidence doesn't get you moving. Courage does. Confident women don't start being confident. They start wobbly, unsure, and a little sweaty. They take the next right step anyway. Over time, they build a history of bravery. A stack of real-life evidence that whispers, I survived that uncomfortable thing. I can do the next one too. And that evidence, not a quote or a pep talk, is what finally grows confidence that lasts.

For the first time in 250 episodes, Ryan steps up to the mic solo. No guest. No script. Just a raw, personal reflection on a question that's been gnawing at him for months: are we still living in the land of the brave—or have we traded courage for comfort, distraction, and outrage? In this candid episode, Ryan explores what it means to choose courage at a moment when trust is low, fear is high, and the country feels more divided than ever. Ryan also shares his upcoming travels abroad where he'll cheer on Team USA Olympic athletes like Jaelin Kauf and he reflects on patriotism, performance, and the quiet acts of bravery required to show up for one another when staying silent would be easier. It's an honest conversation about the kind of courage this moment is asking of all of us.

Chastity Murphy, former Senior Advisor at the U.S.Treasury and Visiting Research Fellow at the University of Manchester, shares her experiences working on digital money legislation, including the Stable Act. She reflects on the transition from cash to digital payments along with her current research developing offline, anonymous public interest payment systems. Key Takeaways: How early stablecoin legislation shaped our understanding of digital money, privacy, and consumer protection The gap between technologists and policymakers in understanding digital money Real-world risks of surveillance and data visibility in financial transactions The potential for new cryptographic capabilities like selective disclosure and zero-knowledge proofs Practical approaches for creating offline, anonymous, and interoperable digital payment systems that don't sacrifice usability Guest Bio: Chastity Murphy is a Visiting Research Fellow at the University of Manchester's Law & Technology Initiative, and one of the leading architects of privacy-preserving digital public money. A former Senior Advisor at the U.S. Treasury Department, she helped shape federal policy on central bank digital currency (CBDC) and digital payments, building on her earlier work as the first congressional staffer (under Rep. Rashida Tlaib) to draft stablecoin legislation. Her current research at Manchester's Digital Public Money Infrastructure (DPMI) project explores how cryptography and shield-law protections can make digital money safe for people—not platforms. The work prototypes use cases such as anonymous public-interest payments and privacy-secure disbursement systems for reproductive-health providers, disaster aid, and humanitarian relief. This work focuses on ensuring that the right to transact safely endures across political climates, crises, medical emergencies, and everyday use. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- About this Show: The Brave Technologist is here to shed light on the opportunities and challenges of emerging tech.
