In this episode of the Mob Mentality Show, we explore Agile Manifesto Principle #11: “The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams.” This principle often sparks debate. Can teams really create great architecture and design without top-down control? Can autonomy be granted when the team isn't ready for it? Does self-organization only work when the right skills, trust, and shared values are already in place? Can control without competence cause chaos? We dig into what it really means for modern teams and why it's still controversial today. Topics covered in this episode include: Why is Agile Manifesto Principle #11 frequently misunderstood in organizations? What dangers arise when control is handed over without building XP competence first? How can mob programming and collective learning raise a team's ability to self-organize effectively? What role do psychological safety, trust, and leadership support play in enabling autonomy? Why must Agile principles be applied together rather than in isolation? How does Principle #11 connect to Lean thinking and the reduction of common wastes in software development? What real-world lessons show how solid architectures can emerge naturally through collaboration? What practical advice can leaders and agile coaches use to balance empowerment with readiness? The conversation highlights both the promise and the potential pitfalls of applying Agile Principle #11.  This episode is useful for anyone who works in software development, engineering leadership, product management, or Agile coaching and wants to understand how to create conditions where self-organizing teams thrive instead of flounder.

In this episode of the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast, I'm outlining the ways you can work with me in 2025 and 2026 if you're ready to grow your consulting business. The message I'm hearing again and again is that things have felt uncertain in the world this year, but this is beginning to shift in a lot of markets. I've been speaking to B2B consultants at all stages of business who are seeing all these opportunities opening up and I'm so passionate about helping them to take advantage of these opportunities to grow their business - all while working less and earning more. Tune in to hear more about the stages of a consulting business and how I can help you grow in 2025 and 2026!   Quotes:  “You can work less - fewer hours, fewer clients, less context switching through your week, less time needed on lead gen and sales - and earn more - by pricing your services competitively for the market you are targeting.” “You might not have realized it yet but one of the biggest determining factors in terms of whether your business will grow further than it has already is you. You are likely the bottleneck to all future progress.” “Your business doesn't need to feel hard or attritional. We don't need to believe the story that in order to grow to 7 figures you have to sacrifice your life or your wellbeing. I love to help consultants make this season of growth feel safer, and calmer and something they are in command of.” “When we align your services with your Zone of Genius, instead of just your Zone of Excellence or your Zone of Competence, we can create a consulting business that feels fun again, and where you are building the reputation of being an expert at a specific thing.”   Useful Links Get in touch with Jessica to discuss your consulting business Join the weekly newsletter for women consultants Buy Too Much on Amazon Leave a rating and review for the Seven Figure Consultant Podcast Connect with Jessica on LinkedIn Follow Jessica on Instagram  

The Senate on Tuesday confirmed Emil Bove as a federal appeals court judge, a lifetime appointment to a perch one rung below the U.S. Supreme Court. Bove, who served as President Donald Trump's personal attorney, ascended to the top ranks of the Justice Department when Trump returned to office in January. Ahead of his Senate confirmation, he became the subject of multiple whistleblower complaints, with some alleging Bove told DOJ subordinates they may need to ignore court orders to enact Trump's agenda (Bove denies the allegations). Former FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe joins us to talk about what Bove's confirmation signals to the rank and file at the DOJ. He also weighs in on what's happening at his former agency right now and — maybe more importantly — what's not happening.And in headlines: President Donald Trump announced a new 25 percent tariff on India ahead of his Aug. 1 deals deadline, former Vice President President Kamala Harris announced she won't run for governor of California next year, and the Federal Reserve kept interest rates unchanged for a fifth time this year.Show Notes:Call Congress – 202-224-3121Subscribe to the What A Day Newsletter – https://tinyurl.com/3kk4nyz8What A Day – YouTube – https://www.youtube.com/@whatadaypodcastFollow us on Instagram – https://www.instagram.com/crookedmedia/For a transcript of this episode, please visit crooked.com/whataday

Live Q&A Calls with Bill Hartman at http://uhp.networkEpisode Overview In this episode, Chris and Bill scrutinize the “Four Stages of Competence” model — a familiar framework in coaching and skill acquisition that assumes learners progress linearly from ignorance to mastery. This discussion reframes learning as a dynamic reorganization of behavior in response to constraint, not a climb up a competence ladder.Key Topics & Chapter Highlights00:00 – Why We're Talking About “Learning”04:00 – The “Four Stages” Origin Story07:00 – Linearity vs. Complexity10:00 – “Incompetence” Isn't Incompetent14:00 – Coaching Without Context Fails18:00 – Behavioral Recognition Over Labels23:00 – You're Not Coaching a Blank Slate28:00 – The Limits of Cueing32:00 – Adaptive Behavior, Not Error36:00 – Evolving the Model (Again)41:00 – Interventions as Design, Not Correction45:00 – Wrapping Up: The System Solves ItselfKey Takeaways Movement — even if awkward or compensatory — reflects the best available solution to the system's current constraints. That's competence, just not your preferred version. Adaptation doesn't follow steps. It unfolds in response to pressure, structure, and context. That process is inherently non-linear. Labels like “incompetent” blind us to what's actually happening. Watch what people do. Understand what it's solving for.Models Should Breathe Even the quadrant model evolved through testing. If your model isn't helping you see clearly, evolve it — or discard it.

But what if kindness and genuine curiosity can break through those walls?Episode Topic Starts @ 15:49Kyle shares personal stories and explores how leading with respect and humility, rather than identity or ideology, can open doors to meaningful conversations.

Ever feel like bedtime (or just family life in general) is chaos? In this warm, honest episode of I’ll Do Better Tomorrow, Justin and Kylie share two powerful but simple parenting insights that can transform your family’s connection and calm. From spontaneous expressions of love to creating structured, soothing routines, you’ll walk away inspired to make small changes that lead to big results. KEY POINTS: Don’t wait for a “special moment” to show love. Tell your kids you love and appreciate them spontaneously, even in the middle of everyday moments. Structure creates calm. A consistent, enjoyable bedtime routine can lower resistance and help kids feel secure and settled. Competence matters. When children know what to do and what to expect, they feel more capable, cooperative, and happy. Even partial consistency is better than none. Don’t beat yourself up if you don’t get it perfect — keep trying. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: "Structure builds competence. Competence is a basic psychological need. When kids feel like they know what they're supposed to be doing and how to do it, they just feel better about life." — Justin Coulson RESOURCES MENTIONED: Parental Guidance TV Show, Episode 3 — airing Monday at 7:30 on Nine & 9Now. More parenting resources and articles at: happyfamilies.com.au ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS: 1. Pick a moment today to tell your child you love them and what they mean to you — unprompted.2. Create or refine a simple bedtime routine that includes calming, positive steps your child enjoys.3. Aim for consistency, but don’t let perfect be the enemy of good — even small, regular steps make a difference.4. Notice and celebrate how structure and loving words improve the atmosphere in your home.5.

Life today is safer and more comfortable than ever before, so why do so many people feel unhappy, lonely, and anxious? Forrest talks with evolutionary psychologist Dr. William von Hippel about this paradox in light of our two core needs: autonomy and connection. He argues that modern life has pushed us too far in the direction of autonomy, and that we need to reclaim connection in order to find happiness.  They discuss how our evolutionary past shaped our needs for autonomy and connection, the tension between them, and why social connection matters so much for our well-being. They also touch on gender and cultural differences, common misunderstandings about evolutionary psychology, and what people can do to create more balanced and connected lives today. About our Guest: Dr. William von Hippel is an evolutionary psychologist and former professor at the University of Queensland. He has authored over 150 scientific publications including his books The Social Leap and The Social Paradox. Key Topics: 0:00: Why hasn't modern life made us happier? 3:20: The evolution of autonomy and connection 10:15: How modern life favors autonomy over connection 18:10: “Sad success stories,” and the cost of competence 20:00: Competence vs warmth as social signals 26:00: Evolutionary mismatch, and its impact on well-being 29:00: How to understand evolutionary psychology 34:00: Evolved gender differences in autonomy and connection 42:00: Balancing sociocultural and evolutionary differences 49:00: What do those gender differences look like in practice? 55:50: Finding a healthy balance between autonomy and connection 1:08:55: Recap Support the Podcast: We're now on Patreon!

In this episode, Chad dives into one of his favorite leadership lessons: John Maxwell's "Law of Buy-In"

Cindy is a serial entrepreneur and champion for women's health and wealth. Over her 25+ year career in healthcare, she's built and sold two companies for over $1 billion, including Sprout Pharmaceuticals, where she launched Addyi, the first prescription drug for women's low libido and what many people call the “female Viagra.” She's now the founder of The Pink Ceiling, where she invests in and mentors women-led businesses breaking barriers in health, wellness, and beyond. In this week's episode, Cindy shares the lessons of building billion-dollar companies. She talks about why competence matters more than confidence, and how importance of taking the shot, even when you don't have all the answers. She shares how growing up constantly on the move taught her how to adapt quickly, build relationships, and embrace change — skills that became her foundation in business. She opens up about the emotional toll of entrepreneurship, the power of building a strong team, and why women need to talk more openly about pleasure, power, and money, and so much more.Disclaimer:ADDYI is for premenopausal women with acquired, generalized hypoactive (low) sexual desire disorder who have not had problems with low sexual desire in the past, and who have low sexual desire no matter the type of sexual activity, the situation or the sexual partner. The low sexual desire is troubling to them and is not due to a medical or mental health problem, problems in the relationship or medicine or other drug use. ADDYI is not for use in men or to enhance sexual performance. Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is increased if you drink 1-2 standard alcoholic drinks close in time to your ADDYI dose. Wait at least 2 hours after drinking before taking ADDYI at bedtime. Your risk of severe low blood pressure and fainting is also increased if you take certain prescription, over the counter or herbal medications, or have liver problems. Low blood pressure and fainting can happen when you take ADDYI even if you don't drink alcohol or take other medicines. Do not take if you are allergic to any of the ingredients in ADDYI. Allergic reactions may include hives, itching or trouble breathing. Sleepiness, sometimes serious, can occur. Common side effects include dizziness, nausea, tiredness, difficulty falling asleep or staying asleep and dry mouth.

Trump says he will no longer take advice from the Federalist Society, and Leonard Leo in particular, for judicial nominations.  The criteria he will use instead appear to be cause for great concern, and we discuss this. Meanwhile, the Senate is poised to bypass the filibuster for more than judicial nominations, which calls for an analysis that we provide.  And the publication this week of Charles Sumner: Conscience of a Nation brings its author, Zaakir Tameez, onto our podcast to speak to Sumner's enduring relevance.  CLE credit is available for lawyers and judges from podcast.njsba.com.

You've got the spotlight, Queen—but are you turning heads and closing deals? In this high-voltage episode, Kimberly Spencer uncovers the seductive trap of visibility without conversion—and why it's the business equivalent of ghosting after a first date. Whether you're a newly certified coach, bestselling author, or a podcast-hopping powerhouse, chances are you've been told, “Just get visible!” But babe, visibility alone is a vanity metric unless it's paired with a bold, intentional sales strategy. Kimberly dives into how visibility opportunities—like guesting on podcasts or showing up on social media—only convert when aligned with real relationships and sales confidence. You'll learn how to avoid the one-night-stand approach to podcast guesting and start courting your audience like a Queen on a mission. From the art of follow-up to confidently making paid offers, this episode is a mic-drop masterclass in strategy, storytelling, and stepping into your worth. If you're ready to stop chasing clout and start cashing in, this one's your royal wake-up call.

In this episode, I'm picking up on a topic we've been talking about—credibility, credentials, and who people choose to listen to. I've got a college degree in business from Pennsylvania State University, so I'm not speaking as someone who's against education. But I'm asking a real question today: does a college degree actually mean you're competent? Some folks with degrees might not like what I have to say, but I'm here to tell the truth. Let's not delay the inevitable. Let's get into it. Show Notes:  [02:28]#1 Holding a college degree does not make you competent.  [10:47]#2 Having a degree or credential doesn't automatically make your words valid or worth following. [20:06]#3 Your argument should stand on its own merit, not on your credentials or resume.
