Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming part of nearly every conversation in healthcare, but many executives are still asking the same question: What do I actually need to understand to make good business decisions? On this episode of The Dish on Health IT, Brian Dwyer, Business Strategist at Point-of-Care Partners, is joined by Sam Schifman, Principal Engineer for AI at Red Hat and Consultant at Point-of-Care Partners, and Kendra Obrist, Senior Consultant and Payer Interoperability Subject Matter Expert at Point-of-Care Partners, for a practical discussion about how healthcare leaders can evaluate AI opportunities without needing to become technical experts. Together, they explore where AI is delivering measurable value today, why many initiatives struggle to achieve expected outcomes, how to evaluate vendors and risk, what emerging policy and governance trends mean for healthcare organizations, and why strong data quality and interoperability remain essential to AI success. The conversation begins by unpacking what people actually mean when they say they're "using AI." Sam explains the differences between predictive AI, generative AI, conversational AI, and the rapidly emerging world of agentic AI, while Kendra encourages listeners not to get caught up in the terminology. Instead, she emphasizes starting with the business problem that needs to be solved and then determining whether AI is the right tool for the job. Brian then asks where AI is creating meaningful value today. Kendra highlights opportunities across administrative workflows, including documentation, member and provider engagement, claims, prior authorization, and other operational processes where reducing friction can improve efficiency and the user experience. Sam builds on that discussion by encouraging organizations to evaluate AI initiatives based on business outcomes and measurable success metrics rather than technical benchmarks, while recognizing that every AI implementation introduces its own set of risks and tradeoffs. The discussion shifts to why technically impressive AI projects often fail to produce meaningful business results. Kendra explains that organizations can become captivated by polished demonstrations without fully considering governance, data quality, workflow redesign, adoption, and organizational change management. Sam reinforces the importance of understanding AI's inherent uncertainty, establishing appropriate human oversight, and preparing employees for new ways of working as AI becomes integrated into everyday operations. Brian next explores how much AI healthcare executives actually need to understand. Rather than suggesting leaders become AI specialists, Sam encourages executives to develop enough knowledge to ask informed questions and avoid treating AI as an incomprehensible "black box." Kendra complements that advice by encouraging leaders to personally experiment with AI tools so they can better understand both their strengths and limitations before making strategic decisions. As organizations increasingly evaluate AI-enabled products, the panel discusses the questions healthcare leaders should ask prospective vendors. Beyond understanding how an AI solution works, they explore governance, transparency, auditability, accountability, data requirements, quality assurance, and vendor responsibility when AI produces unexpected results. Sam also introduces the concept of AI sovereignty, encouraging organizations to think carefully about long-term dependence on foundational AI models and the flexibility they'll need as technology and regulations continue to evolve. The conversation also examines the rapidly changing policy landscape surrounding AI. Kendra explains how federal agencies are currently taking a sector-specific approach to oversight while states continue introducing their own transparency, bias, and human review requirements. Together, they discuss the operational challenges this evolving patchwork of regulations creates for healthcare organizations operating across multiple states and why adaptability will become increasingly important. Looking ahead, Brian asks what developments deserve executives' attention and which trends may be receiving more attention than they warrant. Sam discusses why organizations should avoid assuming generative AI is always the right answer, highlighting continued opportunities for predictive AI, machine learning, and even traditional software approaches when they better fit the problem. Kendra shares why agentic AI and coordinated teams of AI agents may fundamentally reshape how work is performed across healthcare organizations. The episode concludes with each guest sharing one final takeaway for healthcare leaders. Sam encourages organizations to begin thinking strategically about AI sovereignty, security, and organizational flexibility as AI becomes increasingly embedded in core business operations. Kendra leaves listeners with a broader perspective, comparing AI's impact on knowledge work to the Industrial Revolution's impact on physical labor, and encourages leaders to embrace the technology thoughtfully rather than waiting until they feel they have all the answers. This episode offers practical guidance for healthcare executives who want to make informed AI decisions, ask better questions of vendors and internal teams, and develop an AI strategy grounded in business value rather than technology for technology's sake.

In this episode of Published and Paid®: The Podcast, Jasmine Womack shares what it really takes to write a thought-leadership book that sells and supports a business.Note: This episode is being reuploaded from the Published and Paid podcast archives.A powerful book is not just a passion project. For coaches, consultants, speakers, and experts, a book should be created with a clear strategy, a strong framework, and a purpose beyond book sales. Jasmine explains why strong writing alone is not enough and why positioning, marketing, and monetization must be considered before the first chapter is written.This episode is for experts who want to turn their expertise, experience, and personal story into a book that establishes authority, supports speaking opportunities, strengthens coaching or consulting offers, and creates a pathway for business growth.Jasmine breaks down how to start with the end in mind, use storytelling strategically, build a signature framework, create a monetization plan, and begin creating demand before the book is released.In This Episode, The Blueprint to Writing a Thought Leadership Book That Sells: Viewers Will Learn:→ Why a book should be written with a clear business goal in mind→ How to turn expertise and experience into a profitable thought-leadership book→ Why good writing alone does not guarantee book sales or business growth→ How storytelling should support the reader's transformation→ Why a signature framework is essential for expert positioning→ How a book can support speaking, coaching, consulting, and digital product offers→ Why authors should think beyond book sales and create a monetization plan→ How to build interest and demand before the book is releasedKey Takeaways:A thought-leadership book should begin with the end in mind. Before writing, experts should know what they want the book to do for the reader and for the business.Strong writing matters, but strategy matters too. Marketing, positioning, and offer alignment can determine whether a book creates real business opportunities.Personal stories should support the transformation. The story should help teach, guide, and lead the reader toward a meaningful result.A signature framework gives the book structure. It can also become the foundation for coaching offers, consulting services, speaking topics, and digital products.Book sales are only one part of the opportunity. A strong monetization plan can help a book support visibility, authority, clients, and long-term business growth.Notable Quotes from Jasmine:“Nobody cares about your book as much as you do. They care about how it helps them.”“You're not writing a memoir. You're creating a movement.”“Your personal story should support the transformation, not take the spotlight.”“If you don't have a monetization plan, your book becomes a missed opportunity.”• Join - A 5-Day Live (Virtual) Training to Help Experts Turn Their Book Into Coaching, Speaking, Consulting, and Event Profits: → https://www.jasminewomack.com/monetize • Interested in working with us?

Whether viewers are new to business or already earning six figures, this conversation will help them think differently about money, structure, stewardship, and wealth building.In This Episode, Viewers Will Learn:→ Why earning more is only part of the wealth-building equation→ How to structure business income with a long-term plan→ Why taxes should be handled proactively and legally→ Why business and personal finances must stay separate→ How entrepreneurs can begin planning for retirement now→ Why authors, coaches, and consultants need a trusted financial team→ How to think beyond short-term checks and build sustainable wealthKey TakeawaysYour income needs a structure, not just momentum. Without a plan, business owners can stay in constant hustle mode.Taxes are part of doing business. Learning how to minimize liability legally and prepare properly can protect the business long term.Business and personal finances should remain separate. This creates cleaner records, stronger decision-making, and better financial clarity.Retirement planning matters now. Building a business should also include building systems that support rest, legacy, and future stability.A strong financial team matters. Entrepreneurs do not need to know everything, but they do need access to trusted professionals who can guide them.Memorable Quotes:“Making money is great. Keeping it is better.”Eric McGlothin“You cannot retire from what you didn't plan.”Harvey Maclin“Your business income should be funding your wealth, not just your lifestyle.”“Too many entrepreneurs are building big brands without sustainable business models.”Jasmine Womack• Join - A 5-Day Live (Virtual) Training to Help Experts Turn Their Book Into Coaching, Speaking, Consulting, and Event Profits: → https://www.jasminewomack.com/monetize • Interested in working with us?

In episode 78 of the Published and Paid Podcast, Jasmine breaks down the eight characteristics she consistently sees in her top-performing clients. These are the individuals who show up, stay engaged, follow the process, ask better questions, and ultimately create stronger results-not just because of what they say they want, but because of how they move. In this episode, The 8 Habits Top Entrepreneurs Use to Guarantee Business Success, she covers: → Why top clients show up for themselves consistently → Why do they move through content step by step instead of skipping ahead → How full immersion accelerates progress → Why do they do the work without resistance, even when it needs to be redone → How asking thoughtful questions leads to better implementation → Why taking initiative and building connections matters → Why consistent communication reflects leadership → How top performers stay committed even during challenging seasons → Why ownership, maturity, and discipline separate high performers from the rest Whether building a book, a brand, offers, or authority, this episode einforces a powerful truth: better results require better habits. If someone wants to win at a higher level, they must be willing to show up at a higher level. Key Topics: • The traits and habits of top-performing coaching clients • Why consistency and step-by-step execution matter • The role of initiative, communication, and accountability • Why excuses, skipping, and passivity slow down progress • How stronger client behavior leads to stronger monetization results Notable Quotes from Jasmine: "My top-performing clients show up for themselves before they ask the world to show up for them." "The clients who win the most do not skip steps just because they want faster results." "I get better results when I stop complaining about the work and actually do it." "Leadership starts with how I lead myself." "The people who win are usually the people who stay engaged, ask questions, and keep moving." • Join - A 5-Day Live (Virtual) Training to Help Experts Turn Their Book Into Coaching, Speaking, Consulting, and Event Profits: → https://www.jasminewomack.com/monetize • Read - Published and Paid: Write, self-publish, and launch your non-fiction book in 90 days or less → http://www.jasminewomack.com/published-paid-book • Listen - Published and Paid®: The Podcast → https://www.jasminewomack.com/podcasts/published-and-paid-the-podcast • Subscribe - Jasmine Womack | Book Coach & Business Strategist → https://www.youtube.com/@TheJasmineWomack • Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/thejasminewomack • TikTok - https://www.tiktok.com/@thejasminewomack • LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/thejasminewomack/ • Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/theejasminewomack Chapters 00:00 - Introduction to the Podcast 00:35 - Episode Overview 00:52 - Why I Studied Top Clients 01:46 - Why This Matters 02:09 - They Show Up 03:15 - They Follow Step by Step 03:43 - They Immerse Fully 04:55 - They Do the Work 05:34 - They Ask Better Questions 06:59 - They Connect With Others 09:26 - They Stay Consistent 11:03 - Communication Is Leadership 12:42 - They Don't Make Excuses 13:34 - Monetize Your Book Challenge 14:40 - Closing #businesscoaching #clientsuccess #womeninbusiness #coachingbusiness

If you've ever felt like you're doing all the “right” things, building the business, checking the boxes, hitting the milestones, but still feel restless, exhausted, or disconnected… this episode is going to land right in your chest.In this episode of The Happy Hustle Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Barbara Eaton, and let me tell you, this conversation goes way beyond business strategy. Dr. Barbara is a highly sought-after transformational coach, female business strategist, keynote speaker, and the founder of a neuroscience-based coaching practice that helps purpose-driven entrepreneurs build thriving businesses without sacrificing peace, presence, or well-being. She's also a wife, a mother, a five-time grandma (yes, crushing life), a woman of deep faith, and someone who has lived both sides of hustle culture, the grind that looks successful on the outside and the burnout it quietly creates on the inside.What makes this episode matter is that Dr. Barbara doesn't speak from theory; she speaks from experience. From survival-driven entrepreneurship, performance addiction, and emotional disconnection, to radical surrender, rewiring her nervous system, and rediscovering peace as a starting point, not a finish line. We talk about how most high performers are still operating from old survival wiring, why rest feels unsafe for so many entrepreneurs, and how hustle doesn't just affect your business, it affects your marriage, your kids, your health, and your soul.Here are a few powerful takeaways from this conversation:• Burnout isn't a time problem; it's a nervous system and alignment problem. When you're stuck in fight-or-flight, your brain literally shuts down empathy, presence, and clarity. You can't “think” your way out, you have to rewire from the inside out.• Peace is not something you earn after success. It's something you're meant to come from. Dr. Barbara reminds us that there is no magical revenue number, milestone, or achievement that suddenly unlocks fulfillment. Peace is a state of being, not a reward.• Hustle often comes from old survival patterns, not purpose. Many entrepreneurs started their journey out of necessity or fear, and never updated the operating system, even when survival is no longer required.• Presence is the greatest gift you can give to your partner, your kids, your clients, and yourself. You can be physically there and still emotionally unavailable. True leadership starts with nervous system regulation and quiet listening.• Surrender isn't weakness; it's power. Letting go of control, performance, and comparison opens the door to clarity, health, deeper relationships, and sustainable success.We also dive into the importance of faith, stillness, rest, nature, and community, especially for high-achieving women, and how Dr. Barbara creates transformational experiences through her Ruggedly Sophisticated Female Adventure Masterminds and the Wealth & Freedom Collective.This episode is a reminder that happy hustling isn't something you arrive at someday, it's the foundation you build everything from.If you're ready to stop chasing peace and start living from it, this conversation is for you.What does Happy Hustlin mean to you?Barbara says it's the come from. It's the starting point, the foundation. It's not something to get to. It's the starting way in which you do the foundation in which you live your life. We still work. We just do it with happiness and peace.Connect with BarbaraInstagramYoutubeFacebookXLinkedinFind Barbara on her website: https://barbaraeaton.com Connect with Cary!InstagramFacebookLinkedinTwitterYoutube Get a copy of his new book, The Happy Hustle, 10 Alignments to Avoid Burnout & Achieve Blissful BalanceSign up for The Journey: 10 Days To Become a Happy Hustler Online CourseApply to the Montana Mastermind Epic Camping Adventure“It's time to Happy Hustle, a blissfully balanced life you love, full of passion, purpose, and positive impact!”Episode Sponsors:If you're feeling stressed, not sleeping great, or your energy's been kinda meh lately—let me put you on to something that's been a total game-changer for me: Magnesium Breakthrough by BiOptimizers.

Megan chats with Chanda Coston about building real success without burnout and why hustle culture is not worth the price. Chanda Coston is a U.S. Navy Veteran, Business Strategist, and Founder of Chanda Co., where she helps entrepreneurs build profitable, purpose-driven businesses without sacrificing peace or passion. With over 20 years of leadership experience and a background in project management, she teaches systems, mindset, and strategy that enable creative professionals, like food bloggers, to grow sustainably, delegate effectively, and avoid burnout. Her coaching blends structure and soul, because clarity and calm are the ultimate success tools. Burnout is not a badge of honor. In this episode, Chanda breaks down what sustainable success actually looks like and why systems, boundaries, and self trust matter more than working harder. This conversation is a reset for anyone who feels overwhelmed, reactive, or constantly behind. Key Topics Discussed: Burnout is a warning, not a requirement: If your business only works when you are exhausted, something is broken and it is not you. Mindset comes before strategy: No system will stick if you believe rest equals failure or productivity defines your worth. Self awareness changes everything: Learning your personal burnout cues helps you intervene before things spiral. CEO themed days create clarity: Structuring your week around focus areas removes daily decision fatigue. Boundaries protect your energy: Time blocks only work when you are willing to turn things off and say no. Delegation is not optional for growth: If you are the single point of failure, your business cannot scale. Guilt is not a good decision maker: Especially for moms, choosing yourself now creates a better future for everyone.

Ever feel like you're hustling nonstop but still wondering, “Why isn't this moving faster?” Or maybe you've hit that invisible wall where the business is growing… yet somehow you're not growing with it? In this episode of the Happy Hustle Podcast, I'm jammin' with David Guttman, a serial entrepreneur, executive leader, and business strategist with over 35 years of building, scaling, and exiting multiple eight and nine-figure companies. This dude is a three-time Inc. 500 entrepreneur, has an undergrad in Computer Science from Brown University, an MBA from Wharton, and has led teams of hundreds while growing companies from near-bankruptcy to blockbuster exits. He's lived the startup grind, the CEO pressure-cooker, the investor negotiations, the due diligence marathons — all of it.But what makes David so special isn't the titles. He's lived real adversity, made real money, lost real sleep, and came out with clarity, humility, and wisdom worth borrowing.In this episode, we dive into everything from raising capital to avoiding the trap of traditional education… from avoiding burnout to leveraging AI… from building healthier relationships to firing your worst customers. The breadth of knowledge he brings is crazy, but the heart behind it is even better.David breaks down the single biggest mistake entrepreneurs make when trying to raise money or prepare for an exit, failing to budget and forecast. He explains why “dollar cost average into Bitcoin” may be smarter than chasing shiny objects, why AI will replace those who don't use it, and why authenticity beats any degree, credential, or fancy LinkedIn headline.Here are a few key takeaways from the episode:Your business is blind without a budget. If you're not forecasting, tracking, and adjusting, you're not running a company — you're gambling. A real financial model acts like a crystal ball and boosts your valuation instantly.Mentorship beats an MBA every time. David explains why working for a powerhouse leader (even for free) will fast-track your growth more than any traditional education ever could.Fire your worst customers. They drain 80% of your energy and slow your growth. Raise your price until they leave — or until they become worth it.AI is the new calculator — ignore it and get left behind. Spend a couple hours a week learning and applying it, and you'll leapfrog the competition. Avoid it, and you'll get replaced.Authenticity wins the long game. The world is noisy. People trust people — not institutions. Build a personal brand rooted in truth, service, and value.David also breaks down the real reason businesses stall during acquisitions, how to build the right board of advisors, why fast “no's” are better than slow “maybe's,” and why success feels empty unless your relationships, health, and integrity stay intact along the way.This episode is for every entrepreneur who wants to scale without losing themselves. For every hustler who wants to work smarter, earn more, and still be present for the people who matter. And for every dreamer who knows there's more in the tank, more impact, more purpose, more joy.If you're ready to level up how you build, how you lead, and how you live, then you've gotta tune into this full conversation. David drops tactical wisdom, real-world stories, and mindset shifts you'll want to revisit again and again.What does Happy Hustlin mean to you?
