Hylke Hertoghs is partner van Marktlink Capital en komt langs bij Groeivoer om een kijkje te geven achter de schermen van private equity. In mijn hoofd is private equity een onbereikbare wereld. De upperclass van ondernemend en investerend Nederland, waar miljardairs grote risico's nemen en extreme winsten maken. Een sector die ook wel wordt aangeduid met de term sprinkhaankapitalisme en waar het alleen om snel geld maken draait. Een 'ons kent ons' wereld waar je als 'gewone sterveling ondernemer' niet zo snel toegang toe hebt.Hylke legt uit wat private equity nou eigenlijk echt is, hoe private equity werkt en hoe ze bij Marktlink Capital hun fonds zo gestructureerd hebben dat je geen miljardair hoeft te zijn om mee te doen in het succes. Vanaf €250K kun je instappen en mee investeren.We gaan ook in op de vraag wat je als MKB ondernemer kan leren van private equity. Zoals het zien en toepassen van de Power Law. Dat en meer in deze nieuwe aflevering van Groeivoer.Veel plezier! GerhardCALLS TO ACTION

Jesus Followers Must Carve Out Quiet Times to Listen for the Holy Spirit Who Speaks to Us in His “still small voice” MESSAGE SUMMARY: God will speak to you, but you must learn to listen for Him. Learning to listen for and to God requires focused and "in-tune" listening in combination with a filter for all the in-life clutter that your lifestyles and culture create. As Paul tells us in Romans 10:17, followers of Jesus must listen and hear the Word from the Lord: “So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.". You are going all the time with stimuli from many different sources – how can God speak or be heard, in a still small voice, through all your noise? To hear and listen for God, "lengthy times in silence and solitude" with the Lord are needed. Times of quiet prayer with God permits the noise and clutter get taken away. Again, in Psalm 141:1, the Psalmist admonishes us to call upon the Lord and to listen for God's Word: “LORD, I call upon you; hasten to me! Give ear to my voice when I call to you!".   TODAY'S PRAYER: Abba Father, I admit that I am often afraid and embarrassed to openly tell you all that is going on inside me — even though I know you know it all anyway. Teach me what boldness in prayer looks like as I draw near your throne of grace. In Jesus' name, amen.  Scazzero, Peter. Emotionally Healthy Spirituality Day by Day (p. 112). Zondervan. Kindle Edition. TODAY'S AFFIRMATION: Today, Because of who I am in Jesus Christ, I will not be driven by Hatred. Rather, I will abide in the Lord's Love. “I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in Me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from Me you can do nothing.” (John 15:5). SCRIPTURE REFERENCE (ESV): Exodus 19:5; Daniel 9:9-14; John 10:2-16; Psalms 106a:1-12 A WORD FROM THE LORD WEBSITE: www.AWFTL.org.

La situación irregular de la casa de Cecilia Cairo, ministra de Vivienda y Ordenamiento Territorial, que tomó estado público el martes, continuó provocando repercusiones este miércoles a nivel político. Temprano en la mañana, Cairo concedió una entrevista en el programa Así nos va de radio Carve, donde reafirmó que no tiene previsto renunciar al cargo. Allí dijo que no sabía que no había pagado el impuesto a Primaria en las últimas dos décadas, aclaró que sí paga Contribución Inmobiliaria pero como si el suyo fuera un terreno baldío, y admitió que no realizó los aportes al BPS cuando construyó su hogar ni cuando se edificaron otras casas o ampliaciones para familiares suyos en el mismo inmueble. -Yo no es que nunca hubiéramos demostrado voluntad de pago, no, porque pagaba lo que me llegaba de la intendencia. Lo que no hice fue regularizar y al regularizar esas construcciones seguramente tendrían un aporte superior, no le pongo ninguna duda. Pero al regularizar, cuando vos lo pensás, y que yo entiendo que la gente lo piense, era que tenía que tener un arquitecto, un agrimensor que midiera, etc, etc, y la verdad no tenía las posibilidades económicas en ese momento de hacerlo. -Pero ¿por qué no habló con el MPP? -No lo hice. -¿Por qué no dijo,” miren, yo esto me tengo que poner al día porque esto me corresponde, tengo la responsabilidad ciudadana de hacerlo”? -Buena pregunta, no lo hice. -¿Por qué? -No lo sé, porque tengo un sueldo y es el sueldo que cobro como cualquier otro trabajador. Desde el MPP siguieron escuchándose voces de dirigentes que destacan la trayectoria de militancia solcial de Cairo y elogian la forma en que reaccionó a la revelación periodistica que surgió en el programa de Ignacio Alvarez, en particular su transparencia, el reconocimiento del error, el pedido de disculpas y su decisión de llevar delante de inmediato los trámites pendientes de su casa y pagar los tributos que adeuda con los recargos correspondientes. Más allá de ese sector, en el Frente Amplio (FA), en tanto, el vocero que asumió protagonismo fue el presidente de la fuerza política, Fernando Pereira, que, aclarando que hablaba a título personal, descartó los pedidos de renuncia que Cairo recibe desde la oposicion. Ayer, en una entrevista aquí En Perspectiva, Pereira enfatizó que Cairo no cometió un delito ni evadió impuestos, sino que tiene una deuda. Por eso, afirmó, este episodio "no es motivo" para que renuncie a su cargo. "Por deudas de contribución, por deudas de tributos, por deudas de tarjetas hay un millón de uruguayos es decir que yo no creo que sea la idea de nadie que un millón de uruguayos estén inhabilitados para hacer política partidaria o para participar de cargos de gobierno o legislativo, en todo caso lo que tienen que hacer esas personas es pagar sus deudas, como paga cualquiera que tiene deudas". Más tarde, en rueda de prensa, Pereira admitió de todos modos que en su caso personal hubiera puesto su cargo a disposición del presidente. Sin embargo, trascendió que detrás de escena el caso de Cecilia Cairo está generando cada vez más molestia dentro del FA, mientras se acerca la sesión de la Mesa Política del próximo lunes, donde se discutirá formalmente este asunto. Por ejemplo, el senador socialista Gustavo González dijo a El País que la situación “es muy complicada”. En tanto, el candidato a intendente de Montevideo, Salvador Schelotto, de la Vertiente Artiguista, afirmó que “no se puede banalizar” el “error” de Cairo. Además, las Bases del FA adelantaron una reunión originalmente prevista para la semana próxima, a efectos de analizar de urgencia los hechos. La Tertulia de los Jueves con Gabriel Mazzarovich, Martín Moraes y Ana Laura Pérez.

Andrew Walworth, Tom Bevan, and Carl Cannon discuss whether Trump will in fact provide tariff relief for Chinese tech imports, and the internal struggle over tariff policy within the White House. They also talk about this weekend's assault on the governor's residence in Pennsylvania, and former Washington Post reporter Taylor Lorenz's appearance on CNN, where she called accused murderer Luigi Mangione “a revolutionary, who's famous, who's handsome, who's young, who's smart, he's a person who seems like he's this morally good man, which is hard to find." Mangione faces the possibility of the death penalty if convicted for the murder of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson. Plus, how recent events suggest 3 different approaches for Democrats who oppose Donald Trump. Also, Katy Perry, Gayle King and Lauren Sanchez joined an all-female Blue Origin crew for a brief trip into space today. Why? And finally, Andrew talks to RealClearPolitics National Correspondent Susan Crabtree about internal reaction to today's new ad campaign to recruit Secret Service agents narrated by DHS Secretary Kristi Noem, and how Los Angeles and Chicago are taking different approaches to Trump regarding their status as sanctuary cities.

Today marks the beginning of Holy Week - Jesus enters Jerusalem on His way to the cross.

Carve out time this week for extra prayer, study, and fellowship with your Savior to deepen your understanding of all that He accomplished each day of this very intentional and purposeful week.

Carolina Allen is joined by Maddi Cheers to discuss Life Culture. *Trigger warnings for abortion and abuse.   “I'm a big proponent of the divine feminine and where that intersects with the divine masculine. And that. . . when you start, it doesn't matter what culture you're looking at, I do a lot of looking at Celtic culture, you can look at Native American culture, the Mother Earth, that the womb is the center of the woman's power.” - Maddi Cheers   “I think that what you said is so important, Maddie, and I'd love to revisit it. The womb is the center of the female power. And if you have a society that's kind of framed around obscuring that power, making it seem like it's actually your, your Achilles' heel, so to speak, and for you to be powerful, you have to negate that power. I mean, that's the ultimate lie. . . [H]ow different would the world look if we had this mass awakening within women? That we. . . took these scales from our eyes and we were able to see that truly this power to create life is the greatest power of all. And if we safeguarded it in ourselves and in each other, and that became the norm, everything would change.” - Carolina Allen   “Real men, men who are connected to the divine, men who are connected to the divine masculine, as they grow older, don't behave that way. They take responsibility for themselves and for others. And they're not in a 24/7 [search] for pleasure.” - Maddi Cheers “Ask yourself the questions, ‘Where am I heading? What am I doing?' And you have that power to carve out the future that you want. And I want to testify that if you can just stop for a minute and be self reflective, take a moment to center yourself and ask yourself those critical questions that you have the power. Carve out your own trajectory and take, to make that shift in your life. You can do that and you will find tremendous joy, tremendous peace, and harmony.” - Carolina Allen   Maddi Cheers is not just an interfaith minister and spiritual guide; she is a vessel for divine wisdom, a storyteller weaving the sacred thread of poetry and art through the tapestry of life's intricate moments. As an author and artist healer, her creative spirit has been nurtured by over 25 years of rich exploration into the vast landscape of the world's spiritual traditions, with a profound resonance with the indigenous practices from the Americas. https://www.maddicheers.com/   Her artistry in "The Mandala Meditations" encapsulates this harmonious blend of global wisdom and her own intuitive rituals, manifesting in poetic verses and mandalas that offer guidance and reflection for the soul's journey. https://www.amazon.com/Mandala-Meditations-Enhance-Spiritual-Journey/dp/B0CXP3NC5L   Carolina Allen is the founder and leader of Big Ocean Women, the international maternal feminist organization representing perspectives of faith, family, and motherhood throughout civil society.

Have you ever committed to creating even when you didn't believe in yourself? In this mini-episode of 'This Is How We Create,' Martine Severin explores the quiet yet persistent power that drives artists to create even when faced with doubt, external pressures, and self-criticism. She shares a profound revelation from a cinematographer who admitted there were times in her successful career when she simply didn't believe in herself - yet continued moving forward. Episode Highlights There's a gap between creative dreams and current reality that can feel like failure Creative resilience isn't flashy - it's about honoring the contract you made with yourself to be an artist The difference between orchestrating success versus influencing it How separating actions from fluctuations in self-perception can liberate your creative process What if the next level of your art requires stillness rather than hustle? Embracing your unique way of being and seeing the world How generosity and genuine connection can help navigate the "valley of doubt" Key Takeaways Creative resilience is essential for navigating the natural ebbs and flows of artistic life External metrics shouldn't overshadow the simple joy of creating Stillness and quiet can lead to deeper creative insights than forced productivity Community support makes navigating doubt easier - we're not meant to walk this path alone Your creativity is defined by commitment, not belief in yourself Your Creative Assignment Reconnect with the original contract you made with yourself about making art Carve out time for deliberative practice - 15 minutes of just being Ask yourself: "How might I be if I believed in myself every moment of the day?" Reach out to someone in your community with genuine curiosity - not to get something, but to give your full attention   Sound Bites "What if the next level to your art requires something that's counterintuitive? What if it requires stillness?" "Generosity turns out is a secret passcode and a password that opens doors, especially for those of us who find traditional networking exhausting." "Your creativity isn't defined by beliefs or doubts, it's defined by your commitment."

He explains what happened on that call between the two leaders, which officials are working behind the scenes, and whether there are any ways to de-escalate this trade war.Questions? Comments? Ideas?

Betsy Harbison, CEO at Softrip, successfully completed a funded search in 2021. Her story, however, is rather unique in that the business she acquired is a remote, vertical software company that was also a carve out, meaning that a crucial part of Betsy's journey involved the daunting task of untangling Softrip from its parent company. In this episode, she considers the pros and cons of self-funded versus funded search; why she ended up buying a remote company when her search had initially focused on the Midwest; the thinking behind her decision, in purchasing the business, not to raise any debt; and the challenges she encountered in doing due diligence on a carve out, including the seller's insistence that she not speak with employees or customers prior to close. She also shares reflections on her first years as CEO, comprising the excitement and the difficulties around not having the luxury to wait before making changes, the transition from too much product customization to a rebuilding of that core product,  and also her recent focus on an entirely new product offering. It's a distinct story of acquisition entrepreneurship and a fascinating conversation.

What military strategies and tactics can business leaders leverage to position their companies for success? In this episode, Rich sits down with four-star General Robert Brown, President and CEO of the Association of the United States Army. General Brown is an experienced commander who has led at every level, from platoon through Army Service Component Command, leading a group of over 100,000 soldiers. In this conversation, he discusses military strategy and best practices for navigating the modern Fog of War, sharing his insights on red teaming, after action reviews, and leadership principles. ---------Key Quotes: “Too much information has become the fog of war. It used to be not enough. Now it's too much… Now you've got to look through haystacks of information, thousands of haystacks of information, to try to find that golden needle in the haystack that will help you make a decision.” “ I've seen somebody say to me: ‘Here's my strategy, it's 15 pages.' And it's like, hey, it's gonna fail, You might as well stop. Start again. Can't be 15. Nobody's gonna read it.”“ The key is creating a learning environment where people want to learn and that after action review helps you learn and overcome those issues that may be buried if you didn't pull them out. It's like pulling a band aid off. You can't be thin skinned. Sometimes it's tough.”Practice Makes Profit: Increasing team velocity through a decision inventory. League of Strategic Minds [listener question]:   What's the best way to tell if someone is strategic? Winsights: Ideas for Advantage:    Sun Tzu, the Chinese general and philosopher, wrote, “Do not repeat the tactics which have gained you one victory, but let your methods be regulated by the infinite variety of circumstances.” Are you and your team repeating the same tactics year after year and expecting some type of miraculous change?  Carve out time to think strategically about the changes in your market and with your customers.

Another reminder post from Mark Hickie (@MPHickie) where he shares this: “A message for today … Simplify your life! It's easy to get caught up in the chaos of life, but taking time for self-care really makes a difference. Carving out time for self-care helps recharge our mental & physical energy.” The post is all about this quote from Quotes Cafe - “Go offline, focus on yourself, treat yourself, exercise, go into nature, watch the birds in the sky, drink water, pray, laugh until you cry, cry until you laugh again, dress how you want, and set your boundaries. Be free.” So many outstanding reminders here for me to focus on, especially the going offline part a bit more. Yep, I need that. I think so many of us do. So many things we can do to better ourselves. Connecting to the previous episode, these are habits I need to do more of for sure as a part of my own system of living.

Welcome to a new segment of the Sales Gravy Podcast called Ask Jeb! I believe sales professionals are the heartbeat of the economy. You're the ones generating revenue for your organization and fueling innovations that keep businesses thriving. Without your hustle, your company doesn't move forward—and, frankly, neither does the global economy. You're the elite athletes of the business world. Ask Jeb is about you and your real world challenges. It's your agenda and you are in control. On this Sales Gravy Podcast segment, I answer your burning questions on driving revenue, growing your pipeline, leading your teams, and staying ahead of the competition. If you want to get on the show with me and ask your question, sign up HERE Question One: Cutting Through the Noise When Prospecting  Bob from Tullahoma, Tennessee (whom we affectionately call “Outbound Bob” because he's been to our Outbound Conference so many times!) asked a critical question: “Moving into next year, what prospecting advice, piece of technology, or technique would you offer that could apply across all sales organizations and industries? What's our ‘silver bullet'—even if it doesn't really exist?” No Silver Bullet, But... I'm the first to say there's no magic wand in sales—no easy button that instantly books appointments or closes deals. What we do have is the reality of AI-generated “crap” flooding our inboxes and social feeds. This onslaught of automated noise means salespeople must stand out more than ever. Embrace Deep, Differentiated Sequences My top recommendation is to lean heavily into deep, multichannel prospecting sequences. Use everything at your disposal: Telephone (still the fastest way to close deals) In-person visits (yes, face-to-face still works—and people love seeing a real human) Email (but make it personal and relevant) Direct Messaging (LinkedIn, Messenger—wherever your prospect is, be there) Snail Mail (because physical mailboxes are shockingly empty) Networking & Referrals (the original social media) It's not just about persistence; it's about persistence plus differentiation. If you're simply bombarding prospects with a bunch of generic touches, you're just adding to the noise. Instead, craft messaging that proves you understand their world. Messaging That Speaks to Them Good news: the tsunami of poorly written AI outreach actually helps you stand out if your message is empathetic, clear, and focused on the prospect's key interests. Take the time to truly step into their shoes. Know their persona, their industry, and how you solve their burning issues. Show them you've done your homework. Think of It as One Extended Conversation Each touch—voicemail, email, text, or social message—should flow logically from the last. You don't want to leave the same voicemail three times in a row or send “Just bumping this to the top of your inbox” emails day after day. Instead, let your communication build a case for why a conversation is worthwhile. And remember: the number of touches needed to break through keeps rising (15+ touches for warm prospects, 50+ for cold). So, buckle up, play the long game, and keep your messaging sharp. Question Two: Targeted vs. Personalized Messaging After Bob's question, we tackled another big one from a Sales Gravy Coaching client who wished to remain anonymous: How to handle short-burst prospecting and whether it helps to call businesses that share something in common, like location. Short-Burst Sprints I'm a fan of high-intensity prospecting sprints. Carve out 10–15 minutes, chop wood as fast as you can, then take a break. This approach keeps your energy up and your head in the game. Narrow Your Lists Whenever possible, focus on a list of prospects that have something in common—same industry, similar role, or even the same town. That way, your messaging can be targeted, speaking directly to a collective pain point or shared experience.
