Let's break down the key themes and actionable tips from this episode, so you can apply them to your own journey—whatever your "barbecue" may be. 1. Embrace Your Roots and Tell Your Story Brian's Approach:   weezs Groovin Barbecue isn't just a catchy name—it's a reflection of Brian's family history, musical background, and personal quirks. The nickname "weez" came from childhood, while "Groovin" nods to his years as a drummer. This personal touch gives his business a unique identity that resonates with customers. Actionable Advice: Infuse Your Brand with Personality:** Don't be afraid to let your story shine through your business name, branding, and customer interactions. People connect with authenticity. Share Your Journey:** Use your website, social media, and in-person events to tell the story behind your business. Customers love to support people, not just products. Honor Your Influences:** Whether it's family, music, or another passion, let those influences shape your business culture and offerings. 2. Start Small, Learn Relentlessly, and Grow Organically Brian's Approach:   Brian's barbecue journey began during the COVID-19 pandemic, sparked by a simple Weber grill and a desire to try something new. He dove into online tutorials, experimented with recipes, and gradually built his skills. His first big break came when he catered a last-minute event at a local brewery—an opportunity he seized despite initial nerves. Actionable Advice: Begin with What You Have:** Don't wait for perfect conditions. Start with the tools and knowledge you have, and improve as you go. Invest in Learning:** Watch videos, read books, and seek out mentors. Brian's willingness to learn from others—both online and in person—accelerated his growth. Say Yes to Opportunities:** Even if you feel unprepared, taking on new challenges can open doors and build confidence. Let Growth Happen Naturally:** Brian didn't force his business to scale overnight. He focused on quality and let word-of-mouth and community support drive demand. 3. Respect Tradition, But Make It Your Own Brian's Approach:   Brian is deeply respectful of the culinary traditions behind the dishes he prepares. He studies the origins of recipes, adapts them thoughtfully, and always strives to honor their roots—whether he's making Mexican barbacoa or classic American barbecue. Actionable Advice: Do Your Homework:** Understand the history and techniques behind your craft. This builds credibility and deepens your appreciation for what you do. Innovate with Integrity:** Adapt recipes or business practices to fit your style, but always acknowledge where your inspiration comes from. Ask for Feedback:** Brian's friends and family were his first taste-testers, helping him refine his recipes before going public. 4. Build Community—Inside and Outside Your Business Brian's Approach:   From the barbecue competition circuit to local Grayslake events, Brian has found a sense of belonging and camaraderie. He credits much of his success to the supportive barbecue community and the relationships he's built with sponsors, fellow competitors, and local businesses. Actionable Advice: Network Authentically:** Attend local events, join professional groups, and support other businesses. Genuine relationships lead to opportunities and support. Give Back:** Brian uses the American Legion's kitchen, knowing his fees support a good cause. Look for ways your business can contribute to the community. Collaborate:** Partner with other local businesses for events, sponsorships, or cross-promotions. Everyone wins when the community thrives. 5. Balance Passion with Practicality Brian's Approach:   Brian continues to work as a truck driver while running his barbecue business, balancing financial stability with his entrepreneurial dreams. He's strategic about which events he caters, preferring smaller gatherings where he can focus on quality over quantity. Actionable Advice: Don't Quit Your Day Job (Yet):** It's okay to build your business on the side until it's sustainable. This reduces stress and allows you to make thoughtful decisions. Know Your Limits:** Focus on what you do best, and don't overextend yourself. Brian prefers catering and competitions over running a full-scale restaurant. Set Clear Goals:** Brian's next big investment is a Texas smoker, and he's working toward it through event earnings. Define your milestones and work toward them step by step. 6. Leverage Social Media—But Stay True to Yourself Brian's Approach:   While Brian admits he could be more active on social media, he prefers a low-key, authentic approach. He shares behind-the-scenes content on Instagram and Facebook and is considering TikTok, but avoids being overly promotional. Actionable Advice: Show, Don't Just Tell:** Share videos and photos of your process, events, and personal moments. People love seeing the real you. Ask for Help:** If social media isn't your strength, enlist a friend or hire someone to help create content. Engage, Don't Just Broadcast:** Respond to comments, share community news, and celebrate your customers. Social media is a conversation, not a megaphone. 7. Make Family and Relationships Central to Your Journey Brian's Approach:   Brian's relationship with his son, Austin, is at the heart of his story. He involves Austin in competitions, travels together, and uses barbecue as a way to bond and create lasting memories. Actionable Advice: Include Loved Ones:** Find ways to involve family and friends in your business. Shared experiences strengthen relationships and make the journey more rewarding. Prioritize Balance:** Adjust your schedule to make time for important people and events. Success is sweeter when shared. Be Vulnerable:** Brian's openness about his fears and growth as a father makes his story relatable and inspiring. 8. Pursue Excellence, Not Just Success Brian's Approach:   Whether catering a small party or competing at the Jack Daniels World Championship, Brian's focus is always on delivering the best possible food. He's earned perfect scores in competitions and is known for his attention to detail. Actionable Advice: Never Stop Improving:** Treat every event as a chance to learn and get better. Solicit feedback and refine your craft. Compete with Yourself:** Set personal standards for quality, and don't settle for "good enough." Celebrate Wins, Learn from Losses:** Every competition, event, or customer interaction is an opportunity for growth. 9. Give Back and Teach Others Brian's Approach:   Brian is passionate about teaching cooking classes and sharing his knowledge with others. He sees education as a way to give back and inspire the next generation of barbecue enthusiasts. Actionable Advice: Share What You Know:** Offer workshops, write blog posts, or mentor newcomers in your field. Support Local Causes:** Use your skills to benefit community organizations, schools, or charities. Be Accessible:** Make it easy for people to reach out, ask questions, or book your services. 10. Stay Humble, Stay Kind, and Spread Positivity Brian's Approach:   Despite his growing reputation, Brian remains humble and approachable. He values kindness, genuine connections, and the simple joys of good food and good company. Actionable Advice: Practice Gratitude:** Thank your supporters, customers, and mentors often. Be a Good Neighbor:** Look for ways to help others, whether it's through your business or everyday interactions. Lead by Example:** Your attitude sets the tone for your business and community.

PlantSwitch CEO Dillon Baxter won a 25-million-unit Walmart contract before his company had a production facility. He flew to China, stood up a 300,000 square foot vertically integrated factory in 45 days, and delivered 100 million forks in the first year. This episode covers what he learned about vertical integration, GTM sequencing, and why selling materials to legacy manufacturers is a trap most founders fall into too late.Winning a Walmart contract with no factory and executing a 45-day China buildoutThe failure mode of selling raw materials to legacy manufacturers — and the vertical integration pivot that unlocked PMFCompeting against greenwashing in the "industrial compostable" categoryHow tariffs and trade war disruption killed national procurement cycles and forced a distribution pivotBuilding a full product catalog as the precondition for distribution network leverageLive Nation partnership and the shift to mid-market B2B distributionPricing strategy against plastic alternatives, not commodity plasticSelling materials to legacy manufacturers is a distribution trap PlantSwitch originally raised on the premise of creating the raw material and letting large manufacturers take it to market. It looked clean on a pitch deck. In practice, a legacy plastics manufacturer has no urgency to sell a new sustainable material — it's a rounding error on their P&L. For PlantSwitch, it was survival. The insight isn't just operational; it's about sales intensity asymmetry. Whoever has the most to lose will always outsell the partner who doesn't. "If you sell a new material to a manufacturer, they still have to go sell that to the customer. Who is going to be better at selling that material to the customer — is it going to be the legacy manufacturer who's been selling plastic for 50 years, or is it going to be the young, innovative startup where that's our livelihood?"Distribution network before product catalog — then invert When trade war uncertainty froze national procurement cycles, PlantSwitch pivoted away from chasing large direct accounts and spent 2024 building a distribution network. The sequencing was deliberate: no distributor wants a single SKU. PlantSwitch had to build straws, cutlery, cups, and variations across all of them to have a compelling catalog. Now that the network exists, every new product launch has immediate reach. "Now that we've built out that distribution network, it's a lot easier to just get penetration for those products and sell them to our existing customers."Your biggest contract shouldn't require a factory you don't have — but it might be your best outcome anyway The conventional wisdom is to ramp into enterprise. PlantSwitch skipped it entirely, went straight to Walmart, and had to build a 300,000 square foot factory in 45 days to deliver. The compressed execution forced operational rigor that a slow ramp never would have. The cost was pressure. The benefit was capability consolidation. "Trial by fire at its finest."Compete against the greenwashing tier, not commodity pricing PlantSwitch's customers have already ruled out plastic. The real competitive set is the "industrial compostable" category — products labeled sustainable that require special high-heat facilities to compost, and which still create microplastics if they end up in the environment. Customers in that category are paying a premium for a sustainability story that doesn't hold. PlantSwitch competes on being genuinely home compostable, at competitive pricing, with higher performance. "Companies are paying double for this sustainable messaging and it's not solving any sort of sustainable problem."// Sponsors: Front Lines — Silicon Valley's leading Podcast Production Studio.

What if confidence isn't something you're born with—but something you can train? In this episode of Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Avik, we explore how mindset coaching can transform performance, leadership, and self-belief. Guest Janet Dickey, a field hockey coach with 35 years of experience, shares how she built championship teams by focusing on confidence, culture, and mental resilience. This conversation is for coaches, athletes, parents, and anyone who struggles with self-doubt or pressure. You'll hear practical tools—from mindset resets to team culture strategies—that help people show up fully, even when confidence feels shaky. About the Guest: Janet Dickey is a professional mindset coach, creator of the Build to Compete mindset blueprint, and longtime head field hockey coach at Westbrook High School. Over 35 years, she has led teams to multiple honors and built a culture centered on confidence and resilience. Episode Chapters: 00:03:39 – Why confidence is a trainable skill 00:07:34 – The turning point that changed Janet's coaching approach 00:11:07 – Confidence vs. comparison in the social media era 00:13:00 – The BRAVER mindset reset technique 00:16:11 – Turning a small team into champions 00:18:38 – Helping underperforming athletes rediscover belief 00:26:09 – A simple mantra for everyday resilience Key Takeaways: Confidence grows through practice, support, and mindset tools—not personality.

If you've ever quietly wondered “Why do I feel behind?”… this conversation is for you. In this episode of Eat Don't Compete, we begin a new series exploring what success actually means for a Christian. Many of us come into the faith carrying definitions of success that were shaped by culture, ambition, productivity, and comparison. But over time, God begins to expose the tension between worldly success and biblical faithfulness. In this episode, I open up about my own wrestle with discontentment, selfish ambition, and redefining success through the lens of Christ. We talk about: Why ambitious Christians often struggle with discontentment How comparison and misplaced value systems lead to dissatisfaction What Luke 12:15 reveals about covetousness and contentment Why defining success the wrong way will always leave us off balance   The difference between hustling for success and stewarding what God gives This episode lays the foundation for a larger series where we'll explore: Biblical success Joshua 1:7–8 and God's definition of success Christian fruitfulness vs worldly achievement Faithfulness, obedience, and stewardship If you've ever wrestled with feeling like you're not doing enough, not achieving enough, or not moving fast enough in life or ministry — you're not alone. This conversation is about learning to fix our eyes on Christ so we can live faithfully without constantly redefining success according to the world. Scripture Mentioned Luke 12:15 Philippians 4:11–13 If this conversation helped you rethink success, subscribe to the channel so we can keep growing in the Word together. And if you know someone who has been quietly wrestling with discontentment, send them this episode. Don't gatekeep the conversation. More content on YouTube search “@jazminedewees”

Liz Hickox's triathlon journey and mindset transformation. Key Takeaways Mindset Shift Unlocked Performance: Liz's breakthrough came from replacing a self-limiting belief ("I don't win races") with a performance-focused one ("Success is the only motherfucking option"). New Coaching Partnership was the Catalyst: A new coach (Colin Cook) provided the structure and accountability needed to break old habits, including inconsistent training and alcohol consumption. Adversity Forged Resilience: Winning two major races (Happy Valley, Lake Placid) with broken toes proved the power of her new mindset and physical dedication. Kona Podium Validated the Transformation: A top-5 finish at Kona, guided by a single bike-split goal, validated the new approach and solidified her identity as a top-tier athlete. Topics Early Life & Athletic Background Upbringing: Athletic parents; a strict, driving father and a supportive mother. Pivotal Event: A severe car accident at 19 caused a year-long school delay. Wall Street Career: Started on the American Stock Exchange floor, then moved to a NASDAQ trading desk. Running as Therapy: Began running after her father's death, using it as a mental escape from a high-pressure job. Sailing Career: Won a One Design World Championship, leveraging a lighter weight for crew selection. Triathlon Introduction & Early Struggles First Triathlon (c. 2000): The Mighty Hamptons Tri, completed on a mountain bike with aero bars. Result: Walked the run due to lack of training. Return to Triathlon (c. 2017): Used training as a grounding force during a difficult marriage. First Half-Ironman: Timberman, finished just outside the top 10. First Full Ironman: Lake Placid (2017, 2018), consistently finished just outside the top 10. Self-Limiting Belief: Realized she was subconsciously holding back to avoid outperforming her spouse, creating a "marginally well" identity. The Breakthrough Season (2025) Coaching Change: Switched to Colin Cook after her previous coach dismissed her Kona goal for Lake Placid, saying the race was "too competitive." New Approach: Adopted a disciplined lifestyle, including consistent training, dialed-in nutrition, and full alcohol abstinence. Happy Valley 70.3: Adversity: Broke two toes ~10 days before the race. Strategy: Wore a walking boot pre-race, then hammered the bike to compensate for a compromised run. Result: Won her age group by over 20 minutes, securing a 70.3 Worlds slot. Lake Placid Ironman: Adversity: Raced on broken toes, causing pain on downhills and a gluteal tendinopathy injury. Result: Won her age group by 26 minutes, finishing 50 minutes faster than her 2018 time. Kona World Championships Mindset: Approached the race with a focus on experience and enjoyment, not just results. Bike Strategy: Focused solely on hitting the coach-set 6-hour bike split goal, ignoring all other metrics. Result: Finished in 6:01. Run Strategy: Removed socks mid-race to manage burning feet, running the rest of the marathon barefoot in her shoes. Result: Finished 5th in her age group, achieving a podium finish. Next Steps Liz Hickox: Race Happy Valley 70.3 and Lake Placid Ironman in 2026. Compete in Unbound gravel race. Attend the upcoming Tucson training camp.

One hundred of Ireland's top teenage problem solvers gathered on Wednesday in Dublin City University (DCU) for the national final of the ADAPT All Ireland Linguistics Olympiad (AILO). The finalists represent 56 secondary schools from 20 counties across the whole island and are competing for the chance to represent Ireland at the International Linguistics Olympiad in Bucharest, Romania, this July. AILO is run by ADAPT, the Research Ireland Centre for AI-driven Digital Content Technology. The competition challenges students to apply logic and reasoning to decode unfamiliar languages by analysing the language data they are given to work out the 'rules' of the new language. These transferable skills are critical in preparing young people for a wide range of careers in computing, linguistics and language. Speaking about the event, Director of ADAPT, Professor John Kelleher said: "AILO is a showcase of the analytical ability, curiosity and capability of Ireland's young people. The students who have reached the final have demonstrated exceptional problem-solving skills. The skills developed here are directly transferable to the real world, and we hope they will give them a love of computing and data-driven research. We are very proud to host the final at DCU and to support an all-island initiative that opens up these futures to students from every background." Today's finalists progressed through a preliminary round, involving nearly 1,000 competitors, held in schools earlier this year. Competing in individual and team rounds, they will vie for the honour to be one of the four winners who will represent Ireland on the international stage in Bucharest this summer. The results of the AILO final will be released in mid-March. For those who want to try the challenge, sample puzzles can be downloaded from https://ailo.adaptcentre. ie/sample-puzzles/ AILO Sponsor Call Having engaged over 60,000 students over the past 18 years, the All-Ireland Linguistics Olympiad is now seeking a key sponsor to help secure the future of this unique programme and to support its mission of building problem-solving confidence and STEM pathways for thousands of secondary students nationwide.

In this episode of The Distribution, Brandon Sedloff sits down with Travis Pritchett, CEO of HMC, to unpack his unconventional path into alternatives and the evolution of a middle-market investment firm navigating a rapidly changing private markets landscape. From a biology major and fly-fishing enthusiast to leading an $8 billion global real assets platform, Travis shares the inflection points that shaped his career and the strategic decisions that have defined HMC's growth. The conversation spans power generation, European value-add real estate, and the modernization of luxury senior housing, all framed by a focus on asset-level execution and long-term mega trends. They discuss: How Travis transitioned from banking and fly fishing into real estate private equity and ultimately into HMC's CEO role The origins of HMC's power generation strategy and how the firm is capitalizing on AI and data center demand without taking data center risk The evolution of the middle-market value add model and why specialization is becoming a competitive necessity The shift toward luxury, high-amenity senior housing and the demographic forces reshaping the sector Why Europe may present a multi-year opportunity given rebased valuations, capital flows, and competitive dynamics Links: HMC - https://www.harbert.net/ Travis on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/travis-pritchett-1343264/ Brandon on LinkedIn - ⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/bsedloff/⁠ Juniper Square - ⁠https://www.junipersquare.com/⁠ Topics: (00:00:00) - Intro (00:02:24) - Travis' background and early career (00:17:37) - Staying 20 years through growth (00:20:45) - HMC today (00:22:55) - Shared services tradeoffs and costs (00:27:27) - AI tailwinds and new competition (00:28:27) - Power investing 201 (00:29:44) - Gas vs renewables cycle (00:31:09) - Where power capital comes from (00:33:31) - Data centers without DC risk (00:36:33) - Value add platform evolution (00:40:07) - US vs Europe opportunity (00:43:54) - Seniors housing strategy shift (00:47:31) - Luxury senior living today (00:52:01) - Generalist versus specialist (00:55:09) - Reimagining with megatrends (00:57:48) - Closing and wrap up

This week, I sit down with Nick Richtsmeier to explore something many business owners feel but struggle to articulate: trust is eroding, and it is affecting every sales conversation.Nick challenges the traditional growth playbook. Instead of treating hesitation, resistance, or disengagement as problems to fix, he reframes them as valuable data. Distrust is not a failure. It is information.We talk about why digital systems reward speed and extraction over relationship building, and why small businesses feel the impact most. Nick introduces the idea of “trust nodes” as simple, human touch points that shape long-term loyalty far more effectively than funnels or persuasion tactics.If you have ever wondered why prospects seem more skeptical, why sales cycles feel longer, or why pushing harder no longer works, this conversation will give you language and clarity.At its heart, this episode is about returning to what actually grows business: authentic relationships built on transparency, alignment, and integrity.Key TakeawaysResistance in a sales conversation is not rejection. It is feedback.Distrust often reveals misalignment in expectations, incentives, or promises.Small relational moments, or trust nodes, matter more than automated campaigns.Traditional persuasion tactics are losing effectiveness in a skeptical market.Sustainable growth comes from strengthening relationships, not gaming systems.You can find Nick at: Culturecraft.comIn appreciation for being here, I have some gifts for you:A LinkedIn Checklist for setting up your fully optimized Profile:An opportunity to test drive the Follow Up system I recommend by checking this presentation page - you won't regret it.

We live in an age where uncertainty lurks around every corner, but what if uncertainty didn't have to be an anxiety-inducing, uncomfortable part of life?  The Upside of Uncertainty: A Guide to Finding Possibility in the Unknown, by INSEAD professor Nathan Furr and entrepreneur Susannah Harmon Furr, presents strategies and tools to embrace uncertainty and turn it into opportunity.  Nathan, Susannah, and Greg discuss why humans are naturally wired to avoid the unknown, and how our capacity to face it can be strengthened through learnable tools. The conversation covers some of the strategies described in the book like creating “islands of certainty” through rituals and support systems, maintaining a portfolio of personal options instead of going all-in too early, and focusing on what's within one's control while pursuing other meaningful goals, internally.  *unSILOed Podcast is produced by University FM.* Episode Quotes: The golden space of uncertainty 26:59: [Nathan Furr] The American can-do attitude is it was this kind of illusion that we control the world. And most people who have been through something hard recognize it is not totally in our control. We sure we influence it, we nudge it, but a lot of things are outside our control. And so the people who are able to approach uncertainty with greater calm also kind of said, you know, what is in my control? I will focus on that, and what is outside of my control, or partially outside of my control, I am not going to obsess about that. And so there is this kind of golden space where you are focused on what are my internal goals, being the best, doing my best, making a contribution in the world. And I recognize that, there is some element of, in this complex, ambiguous world that I do not control, and so I am just going to focus on the things I can control and let the other pieces go. That leads to a much calmer view of the world. The video and audio are not synched On being comfortable with uncertainty 11:42: [Susannah Furr]: All of us could have cooler and more brilliant lives if we just tried a little bit more, if we got a little bit more comfortable with uncertainty. It is good to know, like, Ooh, I do not like risks. And we have a tool for that. Like, know what risks you have affinities and aversions for, but definitely do not just decide, Nope, I do not do uncertainty, because you are, you are missing out. The real danger isn't risk 18:29: [Nathan Furr] The real danger is not that you are going to go all in on the uncertain thing, it is that you are probably going all in on the certain thing, and you are not bringing that thing you care about, that thing you dream about, into the portfolio of options in your life.

Why is BYU not able to compete with AJ Dybantsa and Rob Wright III?

Revelation 2:12-17 - Speaker: Will Galkin - In Revelation 2:12–17, Jesus speaks to a church living in a city where loyalties competed at every level. Pergamum was impressive, intellectual, and religious, but it was also filled with counterfeit saviors and daily pressure to bow to Caesar. Jesus begins by reminding His people that He knows exactly where they live and what it costs to remain faithful. He commends them for holding fast to His name, even when Antipas was killed for refusing to deny Christ. Yet He also confronts them for tolerating compromise within their own fellowship, allowing teaching that led to idolatry and sexual immorality. The danger was not open rejection of Jesus, but quiet accommodation that slowly reshaped allegiance. The One who holds the sharp two-edged sword will not ignore divided loyalty in His church. Still, His final word is not judgment but promise. To those who conquer, He offers hidden manna, a white stone, and a new name. These images speak of provision, access, and lasting identity. Jesus calls us to be fully His and find our true satisfaction and security in Him alone.

Hunter Greene's definition of "compete" centers on total mental and physical dedication to every single pitch over the course of a full game. He has described it as a high-intensity, draining effort that leaves a player "mentally and physically exhausted" by the end.

Bitcoin drops 40%, but proponents try to claim that volatility is decreasing. Paul and Evan discuss the fundamental issue with trading a commodity that lacks a practical application in the world and competes with one of the most stable forces globally: the U.S. dollar. Listen along as these two advisors share a CNBC interview that's working hard to spin some sort of upside to this investment. Later in the episode, Paul talks about how investments get priced and how this affects Bitcoin's limited supply.    Want to cut through the myths about retirement income and learn evidence-based strategies backed by over a century of data?

HR1 - Arcand dives into Red Sox roster projections and where major outlets see the Sox finishing in the AL East. One thing is clear the Sox have one of the best rotations in the sport, but a rather lackluster offense, leading Arcand to ask, what would you rather have an elite offense and middling pitching or vice versa? Arcand discusses some comments from Mike Vrabel at the NFL Scouting Combine including some about his former player, Eagles WR AJ Brown. Is Brown a legitimate possibility for the Patriots?
