Chair Gary C. Bhojwani, Elsa A. Murano, Ph.D., William A. Newlands (also lead director), Debbra L. Schoneman, Steven A. WhiteThe one black guy on the board - Steve White - who works at Comcast, is somehow qualified to be on Hormel board, and is on BOTH the audit committee AND governance committeeThe conveyor belt that spit pieces of metal as large as 17mm long into “fire braised chicken” sent to hotels and restaurantsCervoMed appoints McKinsey veteran David Quigley to board of directors - WHO DO YOU BLAME? Board is 2 VCs, a longtime biotech CFO, and five MD/PhDs. And among those 8, there are just two woman - the co-founder/wife of the CEO and a VC.

So if he throws a tantrum and leaves, isn't it bro's fault? This is a binary trade - Musk gets extra pay/control, stock goes up and isn't de-meme'd. Musk doesn't, he leaves and the stock is de-meme'd and drops arguably by 66% or more to be more like a car company with some tech. So do we blame investors, no matter what they do? They meme'd the stock in the first place, he couldn't get a trillion extra dollars if they hadn't pumped up the stock - and now they could vote with humanity (no pay) or meme capitalism (pay)!Techbro middle school conservatism - is this Ben Shapiro and Joe Rogan's fault?

When a devastating fire destroyed Denture Crafters (https://www.denturecrafters.net/) a few weeks ago, lab manager Amber Rosema and general manager Daniele Collard didn't waste a single moment. From the parking lot of their burned-down lab, they began rebuilding—calling suppliers, securing space, and rallying their team to get dentures back in patients' mouths. Hear the incredible story of how these two leaders kept their employees working, rebuilt their systems, and leaned on the kindness of another lab to get back up and running in just days. They also share what it's like being part of an employee-owned dental lab, their quick move into digital dentures, and the importance of mental health when life—and your lab—literally goes up in flames. It's an inspiring episode of resilience, teamwork, and what makes the dental lab community truly amazing. If you want to help, Daniele and Amber would love your opinion on any of the following items.

The National Association of Head Teachers has written to the Department for Education demanding it take action to address what it describes as the failing Teachers' Pensions Scheme. The union has told Money Box it's shocked at the number of members contacting it for help describing a litany of delays, miscommunication and the failure to carry out even basic services leaving many in financial disarray. The government says it understands these problems have caused frustration and it's continuing to work closely with Teachers' Pensions to resolve these issue as soon as possible.This year's Winter Fuel Payment in England, Wales and Northern Ireland is going to all pensioners but instead of everyone keeping it, those who have an income of more than £35,000 will have it taken back by HMRC.

When cancer treatment ends, the world expects celebration. The bell is rung, and everyone around breathes a sigh of relief. But for many survivors, that moment marks not an ending, but a new, confusing beginning. The medical team steps back, the appointments stop, and a quiet question creeps in: now what? Survivorship is more than the absence of disease. It's the long, often lonely process of learning how to live again, in a body, mind, and identity forever changed. Fatigue lingers. Treatment dulls memory and focus. Sleep becomes elusive. And beneath it all is the fear: what if it comes back? But what if recovery after cancer isn't just about waiting for the next scan; it's about reclaiming control? Through lifestyle medicine, survivors can begin to rebuild their strength, calm their nervous system, and lower their risk of recurrence. What measures are important for the survivor phase of cancer care? Why is connection and community so important? In this episode, the Medical Director of the Mass General Cancer Center in Waltham, Dr. Amy Comander, returns. The pioneer in lifestyle medicine for survivorship joins us to share what true recovery looks like. She shares insights from her groundbreaking Paving the Path to Wellness program, and we talk about how to have a healthy life after the end of cancer treatment. Things You'll Learn In This Episode -Survivorship isn't just surviving Finishing treatment is only the beginning of recovery. How do survivors move from merely existing to truly thriving? -Movement as medicine Exercise doesn't just build strength; it improves outcomes and lowers recurrence risk. What type of movement makes the biggest impact after cancer? -Food over fear The right diet can reduce inflammation, support immunity, and ease anxiety about recurrence. What does the research actually say about the best foods for survivors, and which supplements to avoid? -The overlooked healing power of connection Support groups and social bonds can dramatically improve the quality of life and survival. Why is community one of the most potent yet underused forms of medicine? Guest Bio Dr. Amy Comander specializes in the care of women with breast cancer. Dr. Comander is Medical Director of the Mass General Cancer Center in Waltham, where she also serves as Director of Breast Oncology and Cancer Survivorship at the Mass General Cancer Center in Waltham and at Newton Wellesley Hospital. She is the director of Lifestyle Medicine at the Mass General Cancer Center and an Instructor in Medicine at Harvard Medical School.

She completed her Internal Medicine residency training and Hematology-Oncology fellowship training at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center and Harvard Medical School. She is board-certified in Hematology and Medical Oncology, and she is a Diplomat of the American Board of Lifestyle Medicine. Dr. Comander has a strong interest in improving the quality of life and outcome of cancer survivors through important lifestyle interventions, including physical activity, diet, and mind/body interventions.

How to Build a High-Performing Sales Team in a Founder-Led Business: Insights from Nicholas LoiseFor many small and midsize business owners, sales can be both the engine and the bottleneck of growth. Founder-led sales will only take a company so far before scalability demands process, structure, and leadership. In this episode, host Josh Elledge speaks with Nicholas Loise, Founder of Sales Performance Team, who shares practical strategies for transitioning from founder-driven selling to building a high-performing, self-sustaining sales organization.Building a Scalable Sales SystemNicholas Loise explains that most founders struggle with hiring salespeople because they underestimate how different it is to sell for a small business compared to a large enterprise. Without the backing of a big brand, sales success depends on grit, creativity, and adaptability. He emphasizes that before hiring, founders must document their entire sales process—from prospecting and discovery to objection handling and closing—so new hires have a clear roadmap to follow.Once the playbook is in place, Nicholas recommends hiring two salespeople at once to increase the chances of success, benchmark performance, and encourage healthy collaboration. He also stresses the importance of investing heavily in the first 90 days, creating structured onboarding, shadowing opportunities, and clear milestones to ensure quick ramp-up and retention. Compensation should be simple and transparent, typically a mix of base salary plus commission that motivates results while providing stability during onboarding.Finally, Nicholas discusses how to maintain oversight without micromanaging. Delegating sales effectively requires trust—but also process. Regular reviews, feedback loops, and continuous updates to your playbook keep the system strong. By using objective assessment tools and focusing on cultural fit, founders can build sales teams that scale sustainably and deliver consistent performance long after they've stepped out of the front-line role.About Nicholas LoiseNicholas Loise is the Founder of Sales Performance Team and a seasoned sales strategist who helps founder-led businesses build scalable, high-performing sales teams. With decades of experience in sales leadership, Nicholas specializes in designing sales playbooks, recruiting and onboarding top-performing reps, and aligning compensation structures that drive profitable growth.About Sales Performance TeamSales Performance Team helps $1M–$25M companies transition from founder-led selling to a system-driven sales organization.

It's not you, the Workers' Compensation system has changed over time, and not always for the best. Guest Christopher Godfrey, with a long career in Workers' Comp, including his current role as research director at the Workers'​ Injury Law & Advocacy Group (WILAG) and a lengthy stint running the office of Compensation Programs at the U.S. Department of Labor, offers some insights.  Where a non-adversarial atmosphere used to prevail within Workers' Comp, Godfrey worries it has been driven toward a confrontational system with a struggle for unilateral control. That isn't how a program aimed at making injured workers whole and getting them back to work started out.  Also concerning Godfrey is a lack of funding for the Federal Employees' Compensation Program, making it difficult for injured federal workers to even find a doctor willing to accept them as patients.  In both state and federal systems, Workers' Comp is being buffeted by politics. Godfrey notes the government shutdown, a slowing employment environment, and even the potential for a stock market bubble threaten the system. Economics and politics can build hurdles that trickle down to how insurance companies and Workers' Comp plans operate. Godfrey shares his personal concerns and describes what WILAG is doing today to protect the rights of injured workers.

aWhat happens when your best employees become your worst managers? Across corporate America, we're facing what experts call the "Accidental Manager Crisis." A staggering 60-80% of new managers receive ZERO formal leadership training before being thrown into people management roles.The result? Burned-out managers, disengaged teams, and cultures quietly crumbling from the inside. Your top performer just got promoted—but technical excellence doesn't equal leadership ability. Without the right training, support, and mindset shift, you're setting them up to fail.This isn't just an HR problem. It's a business crisis that costs organizations millions in turnover, lost productivity, and damaged culture.

In episode #129, podcast host Carmen Ramirez is joined by attorney and visionary leader at Pacific Workers, Bilal Kassem, to discuss the complexities and challenges faced by seasonal workers, particularly during the holiday season. They explore the rights of seasonal employees, the importance of safety in fast-paced work environments, and the risks associated with seasonal employment. The conversation also delves into the hiring process, the potential for misclassification of workers, and the intricacies of workers' compensation and temporary disability benefits. The episode aims to arm listeners with knowledge and awareness to navigate the seasonal job landscape effectively.    Takeaways:  Seasonal workers often face unique challenges and risks.  Understanding your rights as a seasonal employee is crucial.  California labor laws provide protection for all workers, including seasonal ones.  The hiring process for seasonal jobs can be rushed, leading to confusion.  Misclassification as independent contractors can deny workers their rights.  Temporary disability benefits can be complicated for seasonal workers.  It's important to weigh the risks versus rewards of seasonal employment.    Chapters:  00:00 Introduction and Overview of Seasonal Employment  02:54 Understanding Seasonal Workers and Their Rights  05:34 The Challenges Faced by Undocumented Seasonal Workers  08:33 The Risks of Seasonal Work: Injuries and Safety  11:13 Navigating the Hiring Process and Employee Rights  14:17 Common Issues and Fears of Seasonal Workers  16:49 Temporary Disability and Compensation for Seasonal Workers  19:56 Misclassification of Seasonal Workers  22:38 Conclusion and Final Thoughts on Seasonal Employment      This episode is sponsored by Pacific Workers, The Lawyers for Injured Workers, the trusted workers' compensation law firm in Northern California.

In this episode of the PFC Podcast, Dennis and Max delve into the complexities of hemorrhagic shock, discussing its classifications, the importance of understanding compensated versus uncompensated shock, and the vital signs that indicate a patient's condition. They explore resuscitation strategies, emphasizing the need for careful assessment and decision-making in trauma care. Special considerations for different populations, including children, pregnant women, and the elderly, are also highlighted, providing valuable insights for medical professionals in emergency situations.TakeawaysUnderstanding the progression of hemorrhagic shock is crucial.Compensated shock allows the body to maintain organ perfusion despite blood loss.Classifications of shock help in assessing the severity of blood loss.Vital signs are key indicators in evaluating a patient's condition.Resuscitation decisions should be based on multiple data points, not just one.Children have different vital sign norms and require special attention.Pregnant women can compensate for blood loss better than non-pregnant individuals.Elderly patients may not tolerate shock as well due to comorbidities.Communication with EMS about blood loss at the scene is vital.Continuous reassessment of the patient is essential in trauma care.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Hemorrhagic Shock02:57 Understanding the Classes of Hemorrhagic Shock05:51 Compensated vs. Uncompensated Shock08:40 The Importance of Blood Loss Assessment11:57 Physiological Responses to Blood Loss14:47 Evaluating Shock: Key Indicators17:57 Tachycardia and Its Implications20:51 Blood Pressure and Compensation Mechanisms23:42 Understanding Pulse Pressure Dynamics36:01 Understanding the Four Gears of Compensation39:23 Assessing Orthostasis in Trauma Patients43:53 The Importance of Urine Output in Trauma46:42 Mental Status Changes in Trauma Patients49:38 Classifying Shock: From Compensated to Decompensated01:00:19 The Transition from Class Two to Class Three Shock01:10:19 Class Four Shock: The Final Stage of Decompensation01:12:14 Assessing Hemorrhage Control and Decision Making01:19:54 Understanding Classifications of Shock01:31:42 Special Considerations for Pediatric and Elderly PatientsFor more content, go to ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.prolongedfieldcare.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Consider supporting us: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠patreon.com/ProlongedFieldCareCollective⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.lobocoffeeco.com/product-page/prolonged-field-care

"Dissecting Compensation - A Primer on Understanding, Negotiating and Managing Pay"A CMO Confidential Interview with Richard Sanderson, the Marketing, Sales, and Communications Practice Leader at Spencer Stuart. Richard starts with the basics of salary, bonus and equity and branches out to compensation mix, the various types of equity, negotiating best practices, and the "other" elements of an offer. Key topics include: why the devil is in the details; when and how to discuss compensation; the difference between dumb luck and bad luck; and why everyone should do a "multi-year cash flow analysis." Tune in to hear why you should always read the proxy statement and the importance of being prepared to explain how you are using AI.In Part 2, host Mike Linton sits back down with Spencer Stuart Practice Leader Richard Sanderson to get tactical about comp negotiations, severance, equity, and managing your team through pay anxiety. If you're a CMO (or headed there), this episode is your field guide to securing a fair offer and stewarding compensation conversations with your org.Points of interest: • Your moment of maximum leverage: why the verbal offer is the prime time to align on comp—and how to use that window without damaging trust. • How different companies negotiate: spotting “full & fair” one-shot offers vs. multi-round negotiators—and how to work the process with your recruiter as a broker to keep heat and emotion out. • Beyond base and bonus: what's often negotiable (e.g., severance, sign-on/bridge, relocation, start date, work location, travel, even one-offs) and how to prioritize your asks. • Severance norms & timing: what policies typically look like (e.g., 6–12 months in many cases), when to ask, and why it's safest through the recruiter. • Feeling underpaid? Building a data-backed case with market signals, peer benchmarks, recruiter insight—and how proxy statements can ground internal conversations. • Underwater equity & team morale: acknowledging pain, reframing to a long-term vision, and understanding annual equity refresh dynamics (timing matters). • Do the 5-year cash-flow analysis: compare current state vs. new offer (vesting, cliffs, bridge needs) so you don't get surprised in Year 1–2. • Today's relocation reality: mortgage-rate math and why moves can be financially punitive—plan your package accordingly. • Offer etiquette & reputation risk: why turning down a written offer is a red flag on process—and why reneging after signing can follow you. • Be ready for the AI question: every senior marketing interview now probes AI use cases, impact, and CFO alignment—have crisp examples.Sponsored by QuadMarketing only works when everything works together.

In Episode #128, host Carmen Ramirez is joined by special guest Yuvanna M. Diaz, a dedicated Workers' Compensation Attorney, who dives deep into the DWC-1 Form, the first and most important step in filing a workers' compensation claim in California. Discover what this form means, when to file it, and how it protects your rights after a workplace injury.  Whether you're new to the workers' comp process or looking to strengthen your understanding, this episode breaks down the key steps every employee should know. Learn from Yuvanna's expert insights on how to avoid common filing mistakes, secure your benefits, and take control of your recovery journey.    What You'll Learn:   The DWC-1 form is crucial for starting a workers' comp claim.  Injured workers should not rely solely on employers to provide the DWC-1 form.  Filling out the DWC-1 form accurately is essential to avoid complications later.  Describing all injuries, even minor ones, on the DWC-1 form is important.  Employers are required to provide the DWC-1 form within one business day.  Injured workers can seek medical treatment before submitting the DWC-1 form.  Legal representation can help navigate complex workers' comp claims.    Chapters:  00:00 Introduction to Workers' Compensation Law  02:13 Understanding the DWC-1 Form  05:03 The Importance of Reporting Injuries  07:44 Navigating Employer Responsibilities  10:29 Filling Out the DWC-1 Form Correctly  13:09 Common Mistakes in Reporting Injuries  16:19 The Role of Medical Documentation  18:54 What to Do If Your Claim Is Denied  21:49 Understanding Your Rights and Benefits  24:25 Final Thoughts and Key Takeaways      This episode is sponsored by Pacific Workers, The Lawyers for Injured Workers, the trusted workers' compensation law firm in Northern California.

On this 298th episode of Take Flight Weekly, I'm revealing the five high-performance strategies that have stood the test of time—the fundamentals I would build my entire business around if I had to start over from scratch in 2008. If you study elite-level producers long enough, you'll notice their success looks deceptively simple. They don't chase every shiny object. They master a small set of principles and live them daily. Performance at the highest level isn't about doing more—it's about doing more of what matters, better. Every year, Q4 gives me the time and space to think. This week, during one of those thinking sessions, I asked myself: "If I had to start all over, what five strategies would I build my business around?" In this episode, I break down the five non-negotiable strategies every full-service, full-fee real estate advisor and entrepreneur must master: Use Goals for Fuel. Use Vision for Why. Your goals create structure, but your vision gives it soul. Goals are short-term metrics. Vision is the long-term emotional destination that guides every decision. Declutter Your Life. Fly Light. Simplify your systems, schedule, and surroundings so your energy stays focused on the vital few. Complexity kills execution. Clarity creates capacity. The Weekly Meeting with Yourself. Create your weekly business plan—the most powerful routine for driving consistent results. If you want to win quarters, you have to win weeks. Set aside 1-2 hours weekly to review calls, texts, emails, and DMs. This turns chaos into clarity. Commit to Your CRM. Your CRM is the structural side of the Law of Compensation. It organizes your five lists: Top 100, Top 100 Referral Partners, Warm List, Hot List, and Local Collaborators. Without it, you're operating on memory instead of data. Your CRM is your future income. Use Social Media for Intelligence, Retention, and Conversion. Social media is your digital credibility platform. It serves three purposes: Intelligence (track what clients are up to), Retention (clients confirm you're active and producing), and Conversion (prospects search you first—if you're not verifiable, they move on). BONUS: Create Space to Think. Your best ideas arrive when you pause long enough to listen. Reflection is not idle time—it's strategy. Thoughts create feelings. Feelings create action. Action creates results. These six strategies are the operating system for a scalable business and a sustainable life. When you declutter, plan intentionally, build structure around relationships, and show up online with purpose, you create momentum that compounds. Consistency and simplicity wins. Complexity and chaos fails every single time.

"If your name is Jeff… do you deserve free movie tickets just for surviving years of bad impressions?"In this wildly entertaining episode of The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray (with Ben Rogers still out) dive into the absurd, the cinematic, and the existential — all while trying to convince each other to hit the theaters for the new Channing Tatum flick, Roof Man.

Cash PT Trends 2025: What We Learned in Dallas + The New Industry Report In this episode, Doc Danny Matta and Yves Gege unpack takeaways from their Dallas live event and preview PT Biz's new Cash PT Industry Report. They cover what's working now across pure cash, hybrid, and out-of-network models; why continuity and small-group training are surging; and how the talent market is shifting as more solo owners choose to join established cash clinics. Quick Ask Help us move toward the mission of adding $1B in cash-based services to our profession: share this episode with a clinician friend or post it to your IG stories and tag Danny—he'll reshare it. Episode Summary From beginners to builders: PT Biz events now draw ~200 owners focused on scaling, not just getting started. No single “right” model: Cash-only, hybrid, out-of-network, Medicare-focused, and gym-like setups can all work—business principles drive success. Continuity is up: Many clinics now get 20–40%+ of monthly visits from recurring performance/wellness work—stabilizing revenue. Small-group training wins: Huge LTV and stick rate; still underused (only ~¼ of clinics are doing it). Talent trend: More solo owners are approaching larger cash clinics for roles with culture, mentorship, and intrapreneurship tracks. Reality check on pay: Compensation must tie to the revenue a provider can generate; entitlement ≠ value creation. Macro shift: Rising deductibles & wellness demand push all clinics to add self-pay services—cash PT is no longer fringe. Live Event Takeaways Owner mindset: Conversations have matured—hiring, leadership, profitability, systems, and scaling to $100k–$200k/month per site. Market fit varies: Geography, payer mix, and demographics dictate whether to stay pure cash, add OON, or blend Medicare. Community compounding: Member-to-member playbooks (what worked, what didn't) are often the most valuable part of events. The Industry Report: What to Watch Continuity growth: Bigger clinics show higher % of recurring visits, needing fewer new evals to fill schedules. Underutilized small groups: High demand among “post-injury but not gym-ready” clients; strong margins and retention. Diversified offers: Performance, strength, and longevity programs de-risk revenue and increase lifetime value. Small-Group Training: Why It Works Checks the boxes: Strength, mobility, accountability, and community—with clinicians nearby if issues arise. Cost-effective for clients: Often similar to PT weekly or personal training—but with better adherence and social glue. Team friendly: Therapists enjoy variety and fewer notes; can be delivered by PTs or trained coaches under clinical oversight. Career Pathways & The “Unemployable” Test Two good options: Go all-in on ownership or join a high-performing cash clinic as an intrapreneur (clinic director, partner track). Value first, then ask: Promotions/partnerships follow demonstrated impact, not tenure. Reputation compounds. Pro Tips You Can Use This Month Launch continuity now: Create 1–2 simple monthly options (e.g., strength + mobility; return-to-sport). Pilot a small group: 4–8 clients, 2x/week, 8 weeks. Price for value, track retention, collect testimonials. Map your model: List your market realities (Medicare, Tricare, local payer rates, boomer density) before choosing cash/hybrid. Hire from the doers: Prioritize applicants who've tried solo—“batteries included,” better respect for business realities. Benchmark & iterate: Compare your prices, packages, and continuity % to the industry report; fix one lever each month. Notable Quotes “There isn't one right model—principles win. Leads in, lifetime value up, recruit well, lead well.” “Continuity compacts the snowball. When 30–40% of your visits are recurring, everything gets easier.” “If you want stability without owning every problem, be an intrapreneur—create value, then opportunities chase you.” Action Items Download the Cash PT Industry Report and benchmark your prices, packages, and continuity %. Sketch a small-group pilot (who it's for, schedule, price, progression) and pre-sell 6–8 spots. Define two continuity offers with clear outcomes and a simple monthly cadence. Write a one-page model map for your area (payers, demographics, demand) and choose cash-only vs hybrid accordingly. Programs Mentioned Clinical Rainmaker: Systems to get you full-time in your clinic. Mastermind: Scale space, team, and operations. PT Biz Part-Time to Full-Time 5-Day Challenge (Free): Expenses, visit targets, pricing, 3 paths to go full-time, and a one-page plan.

Money talk is always juicy, especially when it comes to speaker fees. In this behind-the-scenes episode, I'm doing something different: I've interviewed multiple event hosts to get their real, unfiltered takes on how they approach speaker compensation.
