How secure is your faith-firewall? Are you constantly battling faith-breaches, compromises, or spiritual malware? In this episode, Chris Cooper, a cybersecurity professional and founder of Lighthouse in Me, LLC, draws striking parallels between protecting data and guarding our souls. Just as companies build defenses against digital threats, Christians must protect their hearts and minds from spiritual attacks. God's Word, says Chris, is the Christian's firewall and eternal policy for protection. Obedience to Scripture determines its effectiveness.Chris's faith journey took a pivotal turn during a career setback, when he realized that true security doesn't come from self-reliance but surrender to God. Letting go of his personal agenda, Chris describes how he embraced God's plan and built his "faith-firewall" through Scripture. Drawing from the parable of the talents in Matthew 25, Chris learned how to invest his time, skills, and finances for God's glory. Viewing work as ministry is a transformative faith practice for Chris. In a world that often separates the sacred from the professional, he believes that his vocation is a platform for worship, serving others, and modeling his faith. Whether managing digital threats or mentoring colleagues, every task is an opportunity to bring eternal value into the workplace.More about Chris:Chris is a seasoned executive leader and devoted Christ follower who brings a unique blend of professional expertise and faith-driven purpose to everything he does. With a career rooted in technology, cybersecurity, privacy, compliance, and risk management, Chris has helped organizations navigate complex challenges with integrity, innovation, and a deep commitment to stewardship.Outside of his professional life, Chris has a long history of community involvement. He's served as a United Way volunteer and Campaign Chairman, helped launch multiple Bible studies over the past decade, and currently serves on both The Salvation Army Midland Division Advisory Board and the Gateway Citadel Advisory Council. Chris is married to his wife Wendy, and together they share a beautifully blended family of five children. In late 2024, they launched Lighthouse in Me LLC, a faith-based initiative focused on inspiring and empowering others to live boldly in their faith. Chris also serves as the Market President of C-Suite for Christ St. Louis, where he is passionate about building trusted leadership, fostering meaningful community, and creating spaces where faith can flourish.Support the showTransforming the workplace one Bible study at a time - DONATE today!

Chris Savage is a master at pivoting. He co-founded Wistia with his best friend in his living room, originally aiming to create an online filmmaking competition platform. When that didn't work, they shifted to portfolio tools and later to secure video hosting for businesses, which became Wistia's core offering. Chris wasn't afraid to turn down major clients like HBO when their goals didn't align. Despite running a $300k monthly loss and receiving multiple life-changing acquisition offers, he rejected them and took on $17.3M in debt to continue growing the business. In this episode, Chris opens up to Ilana about the highs and lows of building Wistia, how he made tough decisions, and what it takes to build a lasting business.

Sales and marketing go hand in hand, and last season, on episode seven (Sales Process Industry Secrets), we talked to Chris Appiah and Stephanie Breaux Bradley from The Sales Arms. It was a great episode, all about sales and new clients. During that episode, we were a little short on time and didn't get to talk much about retention marketing tools but then AI hit us all hard this year, sneaking into every tool we use, so I wanted to have them back on for another conversation. A little bit about Chris: Chris has worked with companies like 24hr Fitness, Peloton, and Xponential Fitness. Now, he's the Founder and CEO of The Sales Arms (TSA), an outsourced sales and marketing team for fitness studios. A little bit about Stephanie: Steph is a former barre studio owner, independent fitness business consultant, and TSA Vice President of Business Development. Here's a quick rundown of what we covered: Chris and Stephanie's 3 T's of good sales and what's new in tech tools to help your sales process. What are the most important things to consider when evaluating a new tech tool supporting your sales system? How are Chris and Stephanie balancing AI/automated outreach and real people outreach? Lead generation and intro offer sales are much sexier and get most of the attention when people think of a sales strategy (or marketing, for that matter), but bringing a sales plan into your retention goals is probably equally or more important. What do studio owners need to know about sales when retaining clients? What are their tips for studios to maximize Black Friday/Small Business Saturday and the January gym rush? What systems can they start implementing now? What offers work well? Resources & Links Mentioned: Sales Process Industry Secrets (Season 1, Episode 7) The Sales Arms Website

Better Help: www.betterhelp.com/elevator - 10% off your first month. #sponsored [04:10] Thoughts from Paul: A few weeks ago, Paul asked our Instagram followers what is the best part of being sober or living an alcohol free life. He shares with us some of the responses he received. The four biggest commonalities he saw were: 1) More authenticity 2) Less shame and regret 3) More energy 4) More clarity Think of the sobriety quote “you're giving up one thing for everything”. Sober Link [11:16] Paul introduces Chris: Chris says he is 56 years old and grew up in northern New Jersey, close to NYC. Cooking is his passion, and he has worked in the food and beverage industry all of his life, currently in a director role. Chris also enjoys the outdoors and currently lives in the Hudson Valley. Beyond the occasional night of overindulgence, Chris says his drinking was normal. He was around alcohol a lot in the industry he works in. After getting married, he and his wife enjoyed entertaining in addition to traveling to wineries and distilleries and building a collection. Over time Chris began drinking more than just wine with dinner, had booze all over the house and was drinking earlier in the day and more often. After he and his wife got divorced, Chris found himself drinking more heavily and was less discriminate of what he was drinking as long as he was getting his fix, as he calls it. He was breaking commitments and becoming less functional in his day-to-day life. Chris didn't drink heavily around other people but told his family in 2018 that he needed help. He went into treatment and was able to gain 14 months. He was part of a sober community called Ben's Friends geared towards those in the service industry. Chris was able to gain some sobriety time but had a series of stops and starts with several more visits to rehab as well. Currently at 34 days, Chris is working on rebuilding his life. He knows time will heal his relationships with family, and he is attending IOP for accountability. He is spending a lot of time outdoors and is grateful that the weather has been nice. He attends AA meetings, Café RE chats, and participates in meetings with Ben's Friends. Missing meetings is a non-negotiable for Chris and he also makes sure to nurture himself physically and spiritually. Chris' best sober moment: being present with his partner while on vacation. Chris' parting piece of guidance: stay connected. Café RE – promo code OPPORTUNITY waives set up fee.

Today is a very special episode of Dieting From The Inside Out because I had the opportunity to interview someone I've looked up to for a very long time - Chris Powell. Most people are very familiar with who he is from his show, Extreme Weight Loss but I wanted to have a very different conversation with Chris. We all know the statistic of most people who lose lots of weight always gain it back so the main premise in this episode is talking about how to not just lose weight but also keep it off forever. We went a lot of different directions in this talk but it was one of my favorites. Enjoy! -Jared TIMESTAMPS: (00:00) - Intro (00:58) - Start of the episode (01:33) - Keeping your results after weight-loss (04:39) - The mental side of weight-loss (10:18) - Going through coaching AND therapy (15:05) - What real transformation actually entails (the most important piece) (22:41) - Changing your identity to get long-term results (32:24) - The message everyone needs to hear about losing weight and becoming healthy (44:04) - You attract what you are (46:33) - Where to find Chris + Chris' App!

Welcome back to the Hustle & Flowchart podcast! On today's incredible journey, I had the pleasure of reuniting with Chris Martinez, who offered his sharp and critical insights into some of the systemic issues we face in both the entrepreneurial world and the wider society. This episode isn't just business as usual; we took a deep dive into the discussion of racism -- a topic that's often deemed too sensitive or taboo, but one that we believe is vital for growth, awareness, and change. The Systemic Nature of Racism in the Film Industry Chris Martinez shed light on the systemic racism within the film industry, revealing that financial stakes often lead to casting predominantly white leads. This isn't always due to overt racism but instead a reliance on "safe" patterns to secure box office success. These decisions contribute to the significant underrepresentation of Asian Americans and African Americans in films. Our takeaway here is that systemic problems require systemic solutions – it's not merely a series of isolated incidents but a broader pattern that needs to be addressed. Embracing Diversity for Innovation and Growth Our discussion also branched into the necessity of diversifying our workforce. Chris pointed out how tapping into a broader range of talents can present untapped opportunities and aid in a business's growth. The world's demographics are shifting, and companies that embrace this change will be better positioned to succeed. Breaking Barriers in Communication and Culture We emphasized how technology and communication are crucial in breaking down the barriers between cultures. Both Chris and I agreed that an open mind and the readiness to overcome personal biases could lead to a more equitable and inclusive society, fostering personal and collective growth. We also discussed the "Agency Freedom Live" event aiming to promote these very values in the entrepreneurial space. The Scientific Approach to Understanding Racism Chris suggested recording an intro about what racism means. By defining racism and its manifestations, like assumed stereotypes, we can approach the issue scientifically. He encouraged business owners to objectively assess each individual's skills without letting biases interfere, advocating for a level playing field for all.. Overcoming Biases for Minority Entrepreneurs Chris shared personal experiences dealing with discrimination and bias, highlighting that minority entrepreneurs often need to work twice as hard to be recognized for their success. It highlighted the issue of credibility and how audience biases tend to favor white individuals, illustrating the need for greater diversity in speaking opportunities. Institutional Racism and Its Long-Term Impacts The episode also tackled institutional and systemic racism, particularly in the context of housing inequality for African Americans. We discussed how this has affected their ability to build wealth and pass on entrepreneurial knowledge, serving as a stark example of the pervasive challenges that minorities face. Resources from Chris Chris brings a unique voice to a commonly overlooked conversation in the industry. Beyond the podcast, Dude Agencystands as a testament to Chris's commitment to not just discussing change but actively fostering it. This is especially evident in the excitement around the upcoming "Agency Freedom Live" event—an innovative summit set to take place this August in San Diego. Tailored for forward-thinking entrepreneurs, the event pledges to offer a vibrant mix of educational sessions, leadership development, and engaging networking opportunities. This episode with Chris Martinez was a profound one. We delved into some uncomfortable realities about racism and representation, but it was a necessary conversation for growth and understanding. Our key takeaways involve recognizing the systemic and institutional nature of racism and the need to be proactive in fostering diversity and inclusivity in all spaces—not just as a moral imperative but as a smart business and social practice too. Let's take these insights and actions forward to create a world where innovation and leadership reflect our richly diverse society.

Episode 455 – How Do You Feel About Ayahuasca and Other Plant Medicines? Today we have Chris. He is 40 years old and lives in Austin, TX. He took his last drink on February 16th, 2007. Check out our events page for our lineup of upcoming retreats and courses. Beginning January 1st, RESTORE, our intense Dry January course is back! In February we have another 5-week Ukelele Course. Then in March, we have two events in Costa Rica, and we'll see you in Bozeman, Montana in August for our 6th annual retreat in Big Sky Country. Exact Nature: https://exactnature.com/RE20 [02:16] Highlights from Paul: Today is episode 9 out of 10 in the Q&A series. Today's question comes from Krista B, in our Café RE group. She says: “How Paul is feeling about ayahuasca and other plant medicines. Are you still as passionate about its benefits today as a few years ago? Has the treatment worked in a sustained way, in your opinion?” Paul shared his initial experience with ayahuasca in episode 170. He believes that plant medicines have a place in the world of addiction and mental health. Do not buy it on the internet and try it solo; set and setting is everything. There is so much preparation that needs to go into an ayahuasca ceremony and under the right circumstances, it will answer many questions. A big one being why you drink. Paul shares how ayahuasca still impacts his everyday life. While Paul found plant medicine helpful on his journey, he recognizes it's not for everyone, nor does he think everyone should try plant medicine. If you are interested, please do your own research before trying it.

He is an entrepreneur and enjoys being creative through many avenues. Chris always felt like an outsider that didn't belong while he was growing up. His parents divorced when he was young, and he blamed himself and ended up distancing himself from people. He craved connections and ended up starting drinking with a group of friends. Chris felt like alcohol was the solution to his feelings of not belonging. His drinking increased and over time he lost all those connections that he used alcohol to find and was drinking alone. At age 23 he went to treatment where they helped him recognize that he had some mental health issues, the main ones being social anxiety and depression. Some alumni from the group accepted Chris, helped him go to meetings and then they would all socialize afterwards. He finally felt he was making connections that he had craved all his life. Seeing people that were staying sober and succeeding was a big boost to Chris' confidence, and he felt like it was possible for him to do the same. His life in sobriety was becoming so great that he never had a desire to go back to drinking. Chris started going to school to become a counselor and immediately started working in the recovery field. He knew it was important to maintain and strengthen his recovery to do the job successfully. Chris started Sans Bar in 2018 as a pop-up bar when there were very few options in the alcohol-free arena. The pop-ups grew, and more and more people were interested in what Chris was doing, mostly through word of mouth. He feels it came along at the right time as the sober curious movement was beginning. Chris says doing this gave him the same feelings that his first sip of booze did – he was forming connections. He feels Sans Bar is for everyone, not just people in recovery. Chris's favorite resources in recovery: The Luckiest Club, 12 step programs, podcasts. Chris's parting piece of guidance: you can't fail. The point of sobriety is not abstinence, it's growth.

Chris Voss is an expert negotiator. After going from a street cop to the FBI and later thriving as a hostage negotiator, he wrote the world-famous book, Never Split the Difference. This book has served as a masterclass in negotiation for almost every field of work, including real estate investing. Although many of Chris's examples come from life-or-death situations, the same rules and tactics can be applied to real estate investing. That is exactly why Chris pivoted and started coaching real estate agents to become better negotiators.But maybe you're not an agent. Maybe you're just trying to get your first or next deal done, working with a tough buyer/seller, and feeling like you're making no headway. Chris has seen this time and time again. An overly aggressive buyer comes in, lowballs a seller, the seller then paints the buyer as the enemy, and the duo does a dance to the death ending in no deal done and frustrations at all-time highs. This is NOT the way to do real estate deals, and Chris has some advice that'll help you change the way you (and your agent) get things done.Chris goes in-depth on a few concepts, such as why “no” is actually what you want to hear, how to form “calibrated questions” that get you what you want, and why you'll need to start using “tactical empathy” if you want to close deals faster. These are some of the same tactics that co-host Rob recently used to get a multimillion-dollar property, without much money out of pocket. No matter your skill level, number of deals done, or years of experience, this advice from Chris could catapult your investing to the next level.In This Episode We Cover:Reviewing key lessons taught in Chris's classic, Never Split the Difference Why most real estate agents will work against their clients, instead of with themUsing overcommunication to develop instant rapport with a buyer, seller, or client“Tactical empathy” and why it's a brilliant way to keep your opponent open to offersAsking “calibrated questions” that make sellers feel safe when working with youBuilding a negotiation scarecrow and making someone else (not you) the instant, uniting enemyAnd So Much More!Links from the ShowFind an Investor-Friendly Real Estate AgentBiggerPockets Youtube ChannelBiggerPockets ForumsBiggerPockets Pro MembershipBiggerPockets BookstoreBiggerPockets BootcampsBiggerPockets PodcastBiggerPockets MerchListen to All Your Favorite BiggerPockets Podcasts in One PlaceLearn About Real Estate, The Housing Market, and Money Management with The BiggerPockets PodcastsGet More Deals Done with The BiggerPockets Investing ToolsFind a BiggerPockets Real Estate Meetup in Your AreaDavid's BiggerPockets ProfileDavid's InstagramRob's BiggerPockets ProfileRob's YoutubeRob's InstagramRob's TikTokRob's TwitterBiggerPockets Podcast 260 with ChrisThe Happiness Advantage TED TalkBooks Mentioned in the Show:The Full-Fee Agent by Chris VossNever Split the Difference by Chris VossSKILL by David GreeneConnect with Chris:Chris' WebsiteClick here to check the full show notes: https://www.biggerpockets.com/blog/real-estate-683Interested in learning more about today's sponsors or becoming a BiggerPockets partner yourself?
