This week on the Becoming a Sleep Consultant podcast, I'm joined by Molly, a former nurse and women's health professional who is just months into her journey as a certified sleep consultant and already building some real momentum.In this conversation, we talk about what it really looks like to move from “I'm thinking about it” to actually getting started. Molly shares about pushing through imposter syndrome, finding the courage to put herself out there, and learning to believe in the value she brings to families. We also dig into the mindset behind early business growth and the personal growth that happens when you begin to believe in the possibility of your own success.If you've ever felt stuck, behind, or unsure whether you're ready to get started, this episode will remind you that confidence is built in motion and that you don't have to have it all figured out to begin.Links:Website: https://sweetsleepandwellness.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sweet.sleep.midwife.molly/If you'd like to learn more about becoming a Sleep Consultant, please join our Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/becomeasleepconsultantCPSM website: https://thecpsm.com/Book a free discovery call to learn how you can become a Certified Sleep Consultant here: https://jaynehavens.as.me/CPSM-Inquiry
Seven years ago, Zac Clark walked into a treatment center to speak at a Tuesday night meeting – and met a guy in pajama pants wearing a “Grateful Dead” tee who had no idea if he was going to make it.That guy was Blake Porter.In this episode, Zac and Jay sit down with Blake – now Vice President of Business Development at Release Recovery – to trace the full arc: growing up in a small town in upstate New York, the fear and insecurity that shadowed his talent, the slow slide from booze and cocaine into opioids and heroin, and the moment his dad found a needle and the truth finally had nowhere to hide.Blake opens up about what early sobriety actually looked like: structure, accountability, humility, and the near-relapse that still scares him to remember – five months sober, back home, texting a dealer from a hotel bathroom… right up until something intervened and he chose honesty instead.Topics include:The AA meeting in treatment that changed everythingSmall-town upbringing, big fear, and the need to escapeAddiction, grief, and the cost of avoiding painThe truth-telling moment with Blake's dadWhy Release Recovery felt like “home”A near-relapse story that shows how real the obsession can beBuilding a life (and career) rooted in serviceIf you're trying to get sober right now, Blake's message is simple – and it might save your life: be honest.

Dive into the challenges of marketing with Loralyn Mears from STEERus! Uncover the art of balance as we explore her journey from burnout to brilliance, helping businesses shine online, snag grants, and gear up mid-level managers for the top. Tune in for her transformative tales and practical advice that could steer your business to success!Here are a few topics we'll discuss on this episode of Hard to Market Podcast.Resources:SteerUsPodcast ChefConnect with Loralyn Mears:LinkedInConnect with our host, Brian Mattocks:LinkedInEmailQuotables:03:50 - Brian: That's normally the way it works. Right? It's never a direct line to success. It's always much more of a search algorithm, a much more of a spiral pattern.Loralyn: Yes. Downward spiral being a lot of it, but yes. And then now I'm spiraling up. I've got it. 'cause it's really the messaging is now really more clear. It's helping people get seen and get paid. And what does that mean? Well, if you're a mid-level manager that everybody's overlooking or you're not getting along with your staff, well, you need to get seen, right? And do all of these things differently so that you get promoted or keep your job. 17:14 - It's so much easier to fix other people's problems rather than your own always plus, right? The cobbler's children has no shoes, right? Because we're always fixing everybody else's thing. So like, my website sucks, but everybody else's that I do looks really good. And that's a whole other thing. 15:11 - The cost of change is often not measured in dollars. It's often measured in organizational fatigue. It's measured in all sorts of the emotional cognitive expense work that isn't easy. It's the same as going to the gym in a lot of these kind of environments where it's like you have to do the, you know, you have to lift the weights, nobody can do it for you. And so you have folks that come in in the small business space, and very often they wanna buy their way out of a problem. And it's like, no, you exercised your way into this problem, you're gonna need to exercise your way out of it. And that creates a very, very difficult dynamic.17:29 - I think it's the state of overwhelm. I think you talked about change, that there is a cost. Mentally, people aren't ready. They know that they need to make change, but it's too much because they've got to change everything on every axis. Right? It's like that movie, first it was only a little bit, and then everything all at once. And it really does become overwhelming, and it's all-consuming, and people just don't have, not even the, the financial capital, which of course is a constraint. You look at the number of small business loans, and two-thirds of small businesses are subsisting on loans. But you look at just the mental energy, it's too much.23:29 - The third thing I would say on go to market is don't get so hung up on the perfection. It's gotta be 99.99% perfect. I really like this. No, I like this image a little better. Let's craft this. Hmm, that post isn't quite right. Just do it. I really believe Wayne Gretzky greatest hockey player of all time, although Alex mentioned, is like taken over. But that's another story, and good for Ovechkin, but Wayne Gretzky said famously, you miss 100% of the shots you don't take. And so that's what I say, don't wait till you're 99.99, 80% is good enough. Get it going. See if it works, test it, try it, refine it.

In this episode of Hustle Inspires Hustle, Alex Quin breaks down how artificial intelligence took center stage during Super Bowl 2026 advertising, based on reporting by Trishla Ostwal via Adweek. With 23% of all Super Bowl ads featuring AI, this episode explores the sharp divide between companies advertising AI products and brands using AI behind the scenes. From brand positioning to user adoption data and emotional audience response, Alex highlights why AI isn't just a marketing trend—it's becoming marketing infrastructure.Episode Outline:[00:00] Intro – Why Super Bowl ads matter in marketing strategy[00:28] AI stats: 15 of 65 ads (23%) featured AI, via iSpot[01:05] Two types of advertisers: AI companies vs consumer brands using AI[01:45] Awareness vs usage: ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude adoption stats[02:23] eMarketer projections: ChatGPT usage through 2029[02:50] Audience reactions: likability, purchase intent, emotional response[03:20] Why clarity is the new advantage in crowded conversations[03:30] Final question for marketers + show wrap-upWisdom Nuggets:Normalization Shifts the Strategy: Once a product like AI becomes normalized, the marketing challenge shifts from “What is it?” to “Why should I care?” That shift demands smarter messaging.Adoption Takes Time—Even with Awareness : Even though ChatGPT has high name recognition, actual usage is still catching up. Marketers need to respect the adoption curve and tailor campaigns accordingly.Advertising ≠ Explaining : There's a difference between showcasing a product and making people understand it. That gap can define success or failure, especially at the Super Bowl scale.Reaction Is the Real Metric : With massive spend and reach almost guaranteed, what matters most is how people react emotionally. The most memorable campaigns connect, not just broadcast.Clarity Wins in Noisy Markets : When many brands say similar things, the one with the clearest and most relatable message sticks. Clear beats clever when everyone's shouting.Power Quotes“Even with massive awareness, usage still grows in stages—and that gap matters.” - Alex Quin“AI is now everywhere during the Super Bowl. The next question is—who's actually advertising it?” - Alex QuinConnect With the Podcast Host Alex Quin:Instagram: (https://www.instagram.com/alexquin)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/mralexquin)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/in/mralexquin)Website: (https://alexquin.com)TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@mralexquin)Our CommunityInstagram: (https://www.instagram.com/hustleinspireshustle)Twitter: (https://twitter.com/HustleInspires)LinkedIn: (https://www.linkedin.com/company/hustle-inspires-hustle)Website: (https://hustleinspireshustle.com)*This page may contain affiliate links or sponsored content.

Is the "Zero Day" infection spreading across the pond? In this episode, we dive deep into the heart of the Eurozone to see how record levels in the DAX and the explosion of 0DTE options are reshaping the landscape for retail and institutional traders alike.

Synopsis: At the heart of JPM 2026's biotech buzz, Alok Tayi sits down with Fred Aslan, CEO of Artiva, to explore how bold platform bets, scalable cell therapies, and autoimmune breakthroughs could reshape medicine. Fred traces his journey from medical school in Brazil to consulting at BCG, venture capital, and ultimately founding multiple companies—sharing why following curiosity, not rigid career ladders, shaped his path. Fred dives deep into the bottlenecks holding back traditional CAR-T therapies—manufacturing complexity, cost, hospitalization, and toxicity—and explains how Artiva's off-the-shelf NK-cell platform aims to change the paradigm. The discussion explores why rheumatoid arthritis became Artiva's lead indication, how immune “resets” could redefine autoimmune care, and what's ahead in 2026 as the company prepares registrational trials and expands its basket studies across lupus, myositis, scleroderma, and more. The episode closes with rapid-fire takes on AI in drug development, China's accelerating biotech engine, rare disease trial models, and the strategic principles founders should follow when choosing indications and building durable platforms. Biography: Fred Aslan, M.D., has a 20-year track record as an executive and investor in the life sciences industry. He was most recently President and CBO at Vividion Therapeutics, where he was responsible for business development, finance, alliance and project management, and operations. Dr. Aslan had the opportunity to lead Vividion's Series B financing and $135M-upfront collaboration with Roche. Prior to Vividion, Dr. Aslan had a 12-year affiliation with Venrock. Initially he was an investor from 2006 to 2013, when he cofounded and served as a board member of Receptos Pharmaceuticals (acquired by Celgene for more than $7 billion). Dr. Aslan led Venrock's investment in Zeltiq (acquired by Allergan for more than $2 billion) and was involved in the early formation of Fate Therapeutics. Subsequently as an entrepreneur from 2013 to 2018, he was CEO of Adavium Medical, a Brazilian medical device company, which he grew from zero to 350 employees, sales of over US$40 million, and fully integrated R&D, manufacturing, and commercial capabilities. Prior to Venrock, Dr. Aslan was Director of Business Development and Head of Investor Relations for CuraGen, a Nasdaq-listed oncology-focused biotech company. Prior to CuraGen, he was a consultant at Boston Consulting Group (BCG). Dr. Aslan holds a B.S. in biology from Duke University, an M.D. from Yale School of Medicine, and an MBA from Harvard Business School.
Michael Roch joins Scott Love to unpack a deceptively hard leadership challenge in professional services: getting partners to consistently do business development, and designing incentives that actually drive the right behavior. Roch's central message is that there's no universal compensation fix—the right approach depends on firm size, strategic priorities (rapid growth vs. deepening key relationships vs. refreshing a stale client base), and even national partnership culture (e.g., UK lockstep traditions vs. more individualistic U.S. models). He stresses that compensation is only a “lever,” not a self-executing solution: it works best when paired with strong leadership, clear expectations, and accountability conversations that tie each partner's strengths and goals to the firm's strategy. Roch describes practical incentive strategies that go beyond simple origination credit. He argues firms should recognize that partners contribute differently—some excel at landing new clients, others at expanding existing accounts, and others at protecting “crown jewel” relationships—so incentives should be aligned to those roles and tracked accordingly. Non-monetary incentives can matter too, such as giving junior partners meaningful internal initiatives to build an “equity-owner mindset,” and publicly recognizing teams (not just lone rainmakers).

This week on the Becoming a Sleep Consultant podcast, I'm joined by Phyllis, a former teacher, school social worker, daycare owner, and mom of four who is now building a thriving sleep consulting business.Phyllis shares what it's looked like to start over professionally, how she leaned on decades of experience with children and families, and what she's learned in her first year of business. We talk about the steep learning curve of entrepreneurship and how she's grown by leaning into her strengths instead of forcing herself to market like everyone else.You'll hear how she's built her business largely through in-person connections, local partnerships, and referrals, and why that approach has worked so well for her. It's a really encouraging example of how experience, warmth, and consistency can carry you far in this work.Links: Website: https://beyondsleepsolutions.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beyondsleepsolutions/If you'd like to learn more about becoming a Sleep Consultant, please join our Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/becomeasleepconsultantCPSM website: https://thecpsm.com/Book a free discovery call to learn how you can become a Certified Sleep Consultant here: https://jaynehavens.as.me/CPSM-Inquiry

NAD⁺ has become a popular topic in fertility and longevity conversations, often surrounded by bold claims and supplement hype. But what does the science actually say—and how does NAD⁺ truly relate to egg quality, ovarian health, and reproductive aging?In this episode, I speak with Dr. Mark Ratner to explore the real role of NAD⁺ in mitochondrial function, cellular energy production, and DNA repair in egg cells. We discuss why NAD⁺ levels decline with age, how inflammation and metabolic stress accelerate that decline, and what current research actually supports when it comes to supplementation. This conversation moves beyond quick fixes, offering an evidence-informed perspective for both people trying to conceive and practitioners seeking clarity amid the noise.Key Takeaways:NAD⁺ is essential for cellular energy production and DNA repair in egg cellsFertility decline with age reflects reduced cellular function, not only egg countChronic inflammation and metabolic stress accelerate NAD⁺ depletionRaising NAD⁺ levels does not automatically restore cellular healthEffective fertility support requires lifestyle, metabolic, and inflammatory care—not supplements aloneDr. Mark Ratner's Bio:Dr. Ratner is a board-certified urologist and the Chief Science Officer of Theralogix, a Washington, DC based company which markets micronutrient supplements with a focus on reproductive health. Dr. Ratner did his undergraduate and graduate studies in nutrition at Cornell University.

This week on the Becoming a Sleep Consultant podcast, we are talking about something that does not get discussed nearly enough in our field, and that is the emotional side of coaching families through sleep.Supporting parents through sleep challenges is not just about wake windows and schedules. It is about holding space for big feelings, uncertainty, exhaustion, and sometimes even grief and anxiety. And as sleep consultants, we have to learn how to stay steady in the middle of all of that.I am joined by CPSM grad Ali Manning, a pediatric sleep consultant who specializes in gradual and parent present approaches for families who feel nervous about sleep training. Ali shares how her own journey into sleep consulting shaped the way she supports parents today, and how her coaching style has evolved over the past three years in business.In this episode, we dive into the concept of “sturdy coaching.” We talk about what it really means to hold space for parents' emotions without absorbing them, how to avoid jumping in to fix every feeling, and why our confidence and calm presence can make all the difference for the families we serve.Ali also opens up about the learning curve she experienced early on, the moments that pushed her to grow, and the mindset shifts that helped her stop taking client struggles personally. If you have ever felt emotionally drained by your work with families or questioned whether you are doing enough, this conversation will feel both validating and grounding.Whether you are brand new to sleep consulting or years into your business, this episode is a powerful reminder that being a great coach is not about eliminating discomfort. It is about learning how to remain confident and sturdy while guiding families through it.Links: Website: https://www.snugglesandslumber.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ali.manning.sleep.coach/If you'd like to learn more about becoming a Sleep Consultant, please join our Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/becomeasleepconsultantCPSM website: https://thecpsm.com/Book a free discovery call to learn how you can become a Certified Sleep Consultant here: https://jaynehavens.as.me/CPSM-Inquiry

Today's episode is all about what it means to get a strong start.So often, I see people finish their training and feel like they need to pause. They wait to feel more confident, more experienced, or more “ready” before putting themselves out there. But momentum doesn't come from waiting. It comes from taking action.My guest today is Alyssa, a recent graduate of the Center for Pediatric Sleep Management who took that idea seriously from the very beginning. She moved forward with intention, focused on progress over perfection, and built early momentum in her business.In this conversation, we're talking about the mindset required to start strong, the moves she made to create traction early on, and why believing in what you're building matters just as much as the strategy behind it.If you're at the beginning of your journey or wondering how to kick your business into high gear, this episode will give you a lot to think about.Links: Website: https://www.aasleepconsulting.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/aasleepconsulting/If you'd like to learn more about becoming a Sleep Consultant, please join our Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/becomeasleepconsultantCPSM website: https://thecpsm.com/Book a free discovery call to learn how you can become a Certified Sleep Consultant here: https://jaynehavens.as.me/CPSM-Inquiry

This episode is us catching you up on why we disappeared and what the last few months actually looked like behind the scenes. My dad got hit with a serious bacterial infection that landed him in the hospital for two weeks. We did manage one big night out at the Findlay Christmas party. Danielle lived her best Kardashian adjacent-life.Mackin is officially in full grind mode with his business. Danielle has promoted herself to Head of Business Development, in addition to becoming a part-time adult ballerina.We do not do official rankings this episode because Mackin did not keep notes and refuses to fake it, unlike Danielle. But we do cover the kids. We also unpack Maria's visit, including her hatred of Teflon, her refusal to microwave nuggets, and ironic refusal to say the word "no" to her kids.That's where we've been. Thanks for sticking with us. We know and we hope you know we love you. Thank you for listening.
