After an 18-year rise through corporate HR—from recruiter to group president across Canada and the U.S.—Dom walked away from a “safe” executive career to build something on his own terms. In this conversation, we unpack why large organizations quietly trade momentum for bureaucracy, how technology and automation empower lean founders, and why “stability” often comes at the cost of creativity, speed, and meaning.We explore intrapreneurship vs. entrepreneurship, the hidden traps of bloated systems, and how founders can use data, automation, and open APIs to move faster without burning capital. The throughline isn't rebellion—it's agency. Building work that's fun, aligned, and alive again.No anti-corporate rant. Just lived experience, hard trade-offs, and a clear-eyed look at what it really takes to step off the stable path—and thrive.TL;DR* Stability is conditional: Corporate safety disappears the moment priorities shift.* Intrapreneur vs. founder: Big-company success doesn't equal personal leverage.* Tech as leverage: Automation and BI (not hype AI) unlock speed for lean teams.* Systems can trap you: CRMs and ERPs either enable growth—or become prisons.* Innovation dies slowly: Bureaucracy rewards optics over outcomes.* Work-life blend > balance: Fun, purpose-driven work creates sustainability.* Momentum matters: Small teams with clarity outperform slow giants.Memorable lines* “Stability often costs more than risk—you just don't see the bill right away.”* “Big systems don't fail fast. They fail quietly.”* “AI isn't magic—it's leverage if you know what problem you're solving.”* “Careers don't collapse overnight; they stall one approval layer at a time.”* “Fun isn't a perk—it's fuel.”GuestDominic Levesque — HR executive turned founder; CEO of NextWave; author and advisor on leadership, technology, and organizational transformation.
Judge Milton Mack shares his mission to reform the mental health system by moving from crisis intervention to early treatment and prevention. His groundbreaking work in Michigan demonstrates how changing laws and procedures can dramatically improve outcomes while reducing costs. • Moving from an inpatient model to an outpatient world where over 90% of mental health care now occurs • Changing intervention standards to help people before they reach crisis, not waiting for the "magic moment" of danger • Implementing mediation for mental health cases to increase engagement and compliance • Creating a system that reduces trauma by avoiding unnecessary hospitalization and incarceration • Demonstrating success through Genesee County's 70% reduction in hospitalization and 90% treatment compliance • Building coordinated stakeholder systems where law enforcement, hospitals, courts and treatment providers work together • Focusing on upstream solutions to prevent people from entering the criminal justice system • Recognizing that early intervention in mental health is as important as early intervention for cancer We need to intervene early—we wouldn't wait to treat someone with cancer when they're stage four, and we do just as much damage by waiting to treat mental illness. Assisted outpatient treatment is the most humane option, far better than hospitalization, jail, or homelessness. This approach benefits everyone. https://tonymantor.com https://Facebook.com/tonymantor https://instagram.com/tonymantor https://twitter.com/tonymantor https://youtube.com/tonymantormusic intro/outro music bed written by T.

Private equity is reshaping auto PI, driving case costs up and crowding every channel with firms spending millions each month. Jon Walner has lived through TV's rise, a full rebrand from his father's household-name firm, and now a market where acquiring a case costs more than ever. In this episode, he breaks down what he's seeing today — the PE squeeze, the real math behind auto, rebuilding intake to stay fast and calm, and why adding comp, probate, and matrimonial can create steadier cash flow when PI margins tighten. You'll learn: How private equity is changing auto PI economics, and why it's costing more to get these cases even as volume looks strong. Rebranding from a household-name TV firm to Walner Law: new name, number, colors, 100+ billboards, and the real risk of starting over. Building a low-stress intake floor that protects focus, speeds up sign-ups, and turns more calls into contracts. Expanding into comp, probate, and matrimonial to monetize existing demand and stabilize cash flow. If you like what you hear, hit subscribe. We do this every week. Get Social!

It's all inside, without the gatekeeping and without the overwhelm.Building a real business became possible for Dr. Lisa Klein when she stopped trying to do everything alone and chose to grow inside a community of women who understood the work.Lindsay Pinchuk talks with pediatrician and Turning Teen founder Dr. Lisa Klein about how a deeply personal idea grew into a legitimate business with national reach. Turning Teen began as a response to a need Dr. Klein saw in her medical practice, parents who wanted support talking with their kids about puberty, body image, emotions, and sex education but did not know where to start. What began as small workshops in living rooms evolved into structured programming for schools, community groups, and families across multiple cities.Dr. Klein shares how joining the Dear Found Her Forum and participating in Marketing Made Simple helped her move from treating Turning Teen as a side project to running it as a real business. Being surrounded by other women builders gave her clarity, accountability, and confidence as she learned marketing, partnerships, hiring, and systems. How different does growth feel when you are not figuring it out alone?The conversation points out how community relationships turned into real opportunities, from strategic partnerships to new offerings and large scale events. Dr. Klein's story is a reminder that sustainable growth often comes from shared experience, steady action, and the right people in your corner.Episode Breakdown:00:00 Meet Dr. Lisa Klein and the Mission Behind Turning Teen03:18 Why Turning Teen Started and the Real Problem It Solves04:47 From Small Workshops to a Scalable Business Model08:58 When a Passion Project Became a Legitimate Business10:55 How the Dear Found Her Forum and Mentorship Drove Growth17:12 Partnerships Community and the Turning Teen Seal of Approval28:13 Advice for Women Building a Business and What Matters MostConnect with Dr. Lisa Klein:Follow Turning Teen on InstagramFollow Turning Teen on FacebookDearFoundHer… Links:Check out the Dear FoundHer...

Some creative partnerships do more than grow over time; they help shape an entire artistic landscape. In this episode of The Movers and Shapers Podcast, we meet Sara Coffin and Susanne Chui, co-artistic directors of Mocean Dance, whose long shared history and collaborative vision have transformed contemporary dance in Nova Scotia. Sara begins by tracing her path from early choreography to training across Canada and the United States, and how returning home eventually led her into a leadership role with Mocean Dance. Susanne shares her parallel journey, from a childhood in community dance to professional training in Toronto and the decision to return to Halifax, where she built an independent career before joining the company. Together, they reflect on the evolution of Mocean Dance from a dancer-centered company to a community-focused hub for creation, training, and sector-wide collaboration.

Your brand isn't losing to competitors, it's drowning in “helpful” content no one remembers. In an AI-everywhere world, bland is broken and volume is just a faster way to disappear.If LLMs can write what you ship in 10 seconds, why would a buyer choose you?This week, Sylvia LePoidevin delivers the reality check B2B marketers have been dodging: content volume is a commodity, brand is the moat. We dig into how AI-native teams actually work (tastemakers and operators), why “helpful” guides are table stakes, and how human stories, conviction, and point of view become the only defensible edge in a world where production is free. We also get into:Content brands > corporate blogs: Building something people follow, not just something you publish.Helpful is dead: Why every piece needs a person, a story, and a spine—or it's AI fodder.Anchors and distribution: Human-made “anchor” content, AI-powered repurposing, zero soul lost.Manifestos, not messaging decks: Founder-fueled conviction as the real brand operating system.Brand as last moat: Community, ecosystem marketing, and taste as the next-gen B2B unfair advantage.
Welcome back to the Oncology Brothers podcast!

Day 4 of the Emotional Reset 7-Day Journey focuses on grounding through inner stability. Building on the foundation of nervous system regulation, this episode explores how stillness, focused attention, and embodied awareness support emotional balance. You'll be guided through a calming meditation using Gyan Mudra, a traditional hand gesture shown to support focus and nervous system regulation through sensory feedback. Grounded in neuroscience and somatic awareness, this practice helps quiet mental noise and cultivate a sense of clarity that can be accessed anywhere. Day 4 reminds us that grounding doesn't always come from the outside — sometimes it's found in the quiet steadiness within. ALL ABOUT THIS WEEK'S SERIES This week on The Daily Meditation Podcast, we're beginning a special 7-day meditation series designed to help you gently release emotional buildup and reconnect with a sense of calm, clarity, and inner balance. So many of us move through our days carrying emotions we never had time to process — lingering stress, emotional fatigue, or subtle tension that quietly accumulates. This series offers a supportive pause, giving your nervous system space to settle and your emotional world room to reset. Each day, you'll be guided through a short meditation with a specific emotional focus, following a gentle daily arc that builds naturally across the week. We'll move from releasing emotional residue, to resting and grounding the nervous system, to creating emotional boundaries, self-soothing, restoring balance, and finally embodying calm presence. You don't need to prepare, analyze, or do anything extra. Simply listening each day is enough. Each meditation stands on its own, while also supporting a deeper sense of emotional ease as the week unfolds. Whether you listen to one episode or join us for the full 7-day journey, this series is an invitation to slow down, soften, and reconnect with yourself. This is day 4 of a 7-day meditation series, "Emotional Reset: Your 7-Day Plan," episodes 3430-3436. YOUR WEEKLY CHALLENGE: "The Gentle Reset Challenge" Pause once daily. Hand on heart. Name the emotion. No fixing. THIS WEEK'S MEDITATION JOURNEY Day 1: Release Emotional Residue Visualization Day 2: Affirmation: "I allow my emotions to move through me with ease and compassion." Day 3: Physiological Sigh Day 4: Gyan mudra for emotional release Day 5: First Chakra to feel grounded Day 6: Release Flow meditation, combining the week's techniques Day 7: Weekly review meditation and closure SHARE YOUR MEDITATION JOURNEY WITH YOUR FELLOW MEDITATORS Let's connect and inspire each other!

Most people know Ciara as a Grammy winning superstar with 23 million albums sold and hits like “Goodies” and “Level Up.” What they don't know is how a military kid with no connections built one of the most durable careers in entertainment and is now quietly building a business empire across rum and kids fashion. In this conversation, Ciara walks through the three goals she wrote down at 13 that led to a record deal at 16, millions of albums sold by 19, and a 21 year career that's still evolving. She talks about why it's necessary to stay “a little delulu”, how manifestation actually works, and how a good whiteboard session can turn an idea into a real-world business. We get into why being the only woman in rum is fuel not fear, how her apparel company 3Brand crossed $100M, and why culture and quality beat hype every time. This episode isn't about overnight wins. It's about confidence built slowly, emotions kept out of decisions, and learning to run your race without burning out trying to win someone else's. ___________ 00:00:00 Introduction 00:01:25 The Power of Pre-Performance Rituals 00:04:03 Embracing Failure and the Amnesia Method 00:06:21 Being Delulu: Walking Into Rooms Fearlessly 00:09:18 Speaking Life Into Your Kids 00:10:27 The Army Kid Who Wrote Her Game Plan at 13 00:16:34 Manifestation: Writing It Down and Speaking It Out Loud 00:22:03 Faith as Your Shield in Dark Moments 00:25:56 Running Your Own Race: Don't Glorify Man 00:28:29 The Greater the Great, The More They Hate 00:30:19 Whiteboard Sessions with Your Partner 00:45:07 Building a 100 Million Dollar Brand: 3Brand Story 00:37:34 Ten To One Rum: Reimagining a Spirit Category 00:47:42 Quality Over Everything: The Business Superpower 00:50:48 Trust Your Gut: Knowing Who Not to Trust on Day One 00:58:34 Following Your Curiosity Down the Rabbit Hole 01:11:14 Beauty Marks and Attainment: Scars Are Your Story ___________ MORE FROM BIGDEAL
In this rapid-fire Working Session, Jon and Becky break down storytelling as a core nonprofit skill — not a marketing tactic — and share simple, practical frameworks you can use immediately. From clarifying your values and audience to collecting and activating stories more intentionally, you'll learn how to move supporters from empathy → connection → action and build a storytelling system that drives trust, belonging, and long-term engagement.Top 3 Takeaways:Story Drives Action — Not Tactics: People don't act until they feel something, and they don't stay until they feel like they belong. Learn how to anchor your storytelling in empathy, identity, and shared humanity so your calls to action actually land.Build a Simple Storytelling System: From collecting stories at the end of emails and donation forms to syndicating one story across multiple channels, you'll learn how to turn storytelling into a repeatable workflow — not a one-off creative lift.Tell Stories With Dignity and Trust: Ethical storytelling isn't about rules — it's about relationships. Centering dignity, consent, and agency protects the people behind the stories, strengthens credibility, and builds the kind of trust that fuels long-term community and generosity.This episode is packed with practical, low-lift storytelling moves you can implement today — whether you're writing an email, planning content, onboarding new supporters, or stewarding long-term relationships.Welcome back to Working Sessions: hands-on, clarity-filled conversations designed to help you move real work forward inside your organization.Let's get to work.Episode Highlights: Story as Meaning, Not Marketing (01:24)Preparing for Storytelling: Values, Audiences, and Action (03:07)Building a Culture of Storytelling (04:26)Ethical Storytelling Principles (06:10)Introducing the Impact Arc Framework (08:05)Practical Working Session Activities (11:42)Community as the Accelerant for Storytelling (15:04) Episode Shownotes: www.weareforgood.com/episode/666//Join the We Are For Good Community—completely free.Join fellow changemakers, share takeaways from this working session, and keep collaborating in a space built for connection, inspiration, and real impact: www.weareforgoodcommunity.com Say hi

Bishop Kevin Foreman is a visionary leader, entrepreneur, and wealth strategist who has generated and managed millions through ministry, real estate, coaching, and digital ventures. From pioneering his first business at 12 to building Denver's largest Black-owned mortgage company and leading Harvest Church, he blends biblical principles with bold execution to help people break cycles of lack and step into abundance. On this episode we talk about: How Bishop Foreman combined a “Bible and briefcase” mindset from childhood into a life of purpose and profit Starting a first business at 12, pioneering a youth business loan program, and learning to “stack” cash early Building a multi-million-dollar mortgage company in his early 20s and navigating the 2000s housing collapse How painful pivots led to planting a debt-free church, Bible college, and a portfolio of M&A-driven businesses Why biographies, constant learning, and seeing yourself as a lifelong student are unfair advantages in life and business Top 3 Takeaways Faith and finances are not enemies: when money is treated as a tool for purpose, wealth-building becomes a spiritual assignment, not a selfish pursuit. Seasons of collapse and reinvention (like the mortgage crash) can be the catalyst that pushes you into your real calling—if you're willing to pivot instead of panic. One of the most underutilized wealth vehicles is buying existing businesses: M&A lets you acquire cash flow, corporate credit, and teams instead of always starting from scratch. Notable Quotes "Money was a tool. Money was a resource. The purpose of obtaining wealth was what I would do with it, not just getting it for its own sake." "The idiot is the one that thinks they know everything. The smart guy sits there and listens as a student." "Sometimes the best move isn't to build from nothing—it's to buy what someone else already built and make it better."

On the latest episode of the podcast, we dive deep into the realities of parenting and homeschooling neurodivergent kids during this season—and share practical strategies to help everyone thrive (not just survive).

Forget preparing better answers. The fastest way to stand out in interviews, networking, and executive conversations isn't what you say — it's what you ask. Most professionals rely on generic questions. And then wonder why they're forgettable. In this episode, Brenden Kumarasamy — founder of MasterTalk — breaks down the 100, 200, and 300-level question framework and explains why the quality of your questions is one of the clearest predictors of how you'll perform before you're ever hired. This isn't about sounding impressive. It's about signaling judgment, preparation, and future value. Why this matters Every interview ends the same way: “What questions do you have for me?” Most candidates waste that moment. And that moment is often the only part of the conversation that actually differentiates you. Weak questions don't just stall momentum — they quietly tell decision-makers how you think. In this episode, we unpack: Why 100-level questions instantly put you in the “everyone else” category How 200-level questions create rarity and make people lean in What makes a 300-level question so powerful it changes how you're evaluated Why hiring decisions are made on future contribution, not past experience How great questions act as a proxy for judgment, preparation, and leadership The moment Brenden realized time mattered more than money — and how that shifted his career How to build leverage whether you stay corporate or move into entrepreneurship Timestamps (0:00) – Intro (2:43) — How competitive case competitions became a communication business (6:08) – Why the quality of your questions shapes your career (10:29) – 100-level vs 200-level questions and why most people blend in (13:07) – 300-level questions and how they change how you're evaluated (19:27) – Why questions predict performance better than résumés (21:25) – The moment time became more valuable than money (26:30) – Building leverage whether you stay corporate or leave The real takeaway Your résumé explains where you've been. Your questions forecast who you'll be inside the company. And executives know exactly how to read the difference.
