Working Across Differences in Politics: "I can work with people, and still it goes back to what we were saying earlier. I can work with people and still disagree with them on things, but maybe I need to." - Scott SweitzerWe sit down with Scott Sweitzer—a longtime political consultant and entrepreneur whose journey bridges the worlds of politics and microbrewing. Scott shares how a simple night of beer tasting with friends led him to co-found a brewery, while continuing his 25-year career navigating the highs and lows of American politics.We talk about the powerful emotions that drive today's increasingly divided political arena, explore the complexities of building bridges across differences, and talk about how tribalism in both politics and everyday life can separate us—or bring us together. Scott also opens up about his approach to helping candidates connect authentically with voters through storytelling and reflects on the personal challenges of staying grounded and empathetic in a profession marked by skepticism and heated debate.Plus, we touch on the impact of social media, the importance of curiosity, and how skills from entrepreneurship and consulting translate to everyday relationships. Whether you're interested in leadership, emotional intelligence, or are just a curious soul, this conversation is packed with insights, laughs, and some practical advice—including a heartfelt reminder that failure is part of learning and growth.Here are our top three takeaways:Curiosity Opens Doors: Scott emphasized the power of asking questions and being curious, both for personal growth and bridging divides. Stepping outside our echo chambers and seeking different perspectives can reshape our understanding and foster empathy.Emotional Connection is Key: Whether it's a political campaign or launching a new product, Scott underscored the importance of building genuine emotional connections. People are far more likely to buy in—to ideas, products, or candidates—when they feel heard and understood.Failure is Part of the Process: Scott's advice for entrepreneurs? Be willing to fail—and most importantly, learn from those failures. Growth comes from trying, stumbling, reflecting, and trying again.Key Moments05:12 The Cost of Political Tribalism09:23 Purposeful Living and Community Impact11:40 Rethinking Affirmative Action Globally14:56 Value of Elected Officials18:00 U.S. Government's Poor Decision-Making23:21 Collaborating Despite Differences24:25 Familiarity Breeds Skepticism28:07 "Emotional Connection in Politics"32:03 Profound Insight on Bill Maher35:33 "Escaping Reality and Its Risks"38:45 "Power of Personal Testimony"41:06 Embrace Failure to Succeed44:31 Overlooking Self-Empathy's Importance48:07 The Challenges of Personal GrowthIn each episode, Jeff and Eric will talk about what emotional intelligence, or understanding your emotions, can do for you in your daily and work life.

High Culture Hiring – so nennt Medizinalcannabis-Scale-up enua sein kompromissloses Recruiting-System. Deshalb habe ich mit CEO Albert Schwarzmeier gesprochen, um herauszufinden, wie er in nur zwei Jahren von 15 auf 51 Mitarbeitende gewachsen ist – und zwar profitabel, ganz ohne Burn-rate. Zunächst einmal: Schnelles Wachstum gelingt nur mit den richtigen Leuten. Darum definiert enua jede Rolle glasklar nach Purpose, Impact, KPIs und Culture Fit, bevor eine Anzeige live geht. Dann öffnet sich der Funnel aus LinkedIn-Posts, StepStone-Ads und einem starken Empfehlungsprogramm, das bereits 30 % aller Neueinstellungen liefert. Außerdem punktet das Team mit Tempo. HR meldet sich innerhalb von 48 Stunden im Videocall. Danach folgt der Hiring-Manager noch in derselben Woche. Schließlich trifft jede Bewerberin oder jeder Bewerber spätestens am siebten Tag eine Geschäftsführerin oder einen Geschäftsführer. Fällt ein Daumen im Panel nach unten, endet der Prozess sofort – daher spart enua Zeit, Geld und Nerven. Das Konzept endet natürlich nicht mit der Unterschrift. Somit führt das Onboarding neue Kolleg:innen in den ersten 30 Tagen gezielt durch Sales, Supply Chain, Data & Quality. Dadurch verstehen sie das hoch regulierte Produkt blitzschnell und liefern schon in Woche vier erste Quick Wins. Das Ergebnis: nahezu keine Kündigungen in der Probezeit. Zugleich bleibt Recruiting Chefsache. Albert veröffentlicht wöchentlich drei LinkedIn-Beiträge, misst Employer-Branding-KPIs und gibt jede Einstellung persönlich frei. Auf diese Weise schützt er die Kultur, obwohl das Team rasant wächst. Hinzu kommt ein konsequentes Reporting. Jede Woche prüft das People-Team Time-to-Hire, Funnel-Conversion und Cost-per-Hire. Sobald ein Ziel verfehlt wird, reagiert enua sofort – sei es mit neuen Sourcing-Quellen oder angepassten Interviewfragen. Mein Fazit: High Culture Hiring ist ein echter Wachstumsbooster. Wer seine Kultur messbar macht und jede Einstellung an klaren Kriterien ausrichtet, gewinnt den War for Talent – sogar in Nischen wie Medizinalcannabis. Daher solltest du jetzt reinhören, wenn du dein Recruiting auf High-Speed und High-Quality bringen willst. In der Episode bekommst du Alberts komplette Checkliste zum Nachbauen.
In this episode of the Defence Property Podcast, co-hosts Kane Dury from Discover Buyers Agency and Liam Garman, editor of Smart Property Investment, dive into two of the most overlooked but critical aspects of property investing: opportunity cost and due diligence. They unpack the hidden cost of waiting too long to invest and how analysis paralysis or emotional decision-making can leave defence personnel behind in rising markets. Dury shares real-world examples of missed opportunities, and why timing the market perfectly can sometimes do more harm than good. The duo also stress the importance of detailed due diligence, looking beyond the surface appeal of a property. From flood zones and bushfire overlays to public housing density and infrastructure plans, defence investors are walked through the essential checks before signing on the dotted line. Whether you're looking to build a portfolio or buying your first investment property, this episode is packed with hard-won insights to help ADF members maximise returns and minimise risk.

You have to interrogate the thoughts, views, and understanding of the facts. You do this not to prove you're right, but to ensure you're not wrong—to make sure you're not embarrassingly, shamefully, confidently wrong.

What if the secret to skyrocketing customer loyalty and retention isn't digital at all, but something you can touch? In this episode of Predictable B2B Success, host Vinay Koshy sits down with Mark Stern, CEO and founder of Custom Box Agency, to unpack how tangible, kinesthetic experiences are transforming the B2B customer journey. After a successful career as a Deloitte strategy consultant, Mark unexpectedly pivoted from corporate life into entrepreneurship, driven by a frustration with the impersonal nature of digital-only offerings. Mark reveals how sending physical “custom box” experiences not only sets customers up for success but turns them into passionate brand advocates who generate organic buzz. Their conversation dives into the real ROI of physical engagement, how clear customer journeys and micro-wins fuel retention, and why recognition is the ultimate hidden driver for long-term loyalty. If you're rethinking how to break free from retention plateaus, want to spark more excitement in your customer onboarding, or are just tired of stale, digital-only strategies, this episode will open your mind to a whole new set of possibilities.

Some areas we explore in this episode include: Mark Stern's Journey – Transition from Deloitte to founding Custom Box Agency.Value of Physical Experiences – Why adding tangible elements to digital offers matters.First “Box Zero” Campaign – How a high-ticket online summit led to the first successful custom box experience.Customer Journey vs. Customer Experience – The importance of mapping the journey before designing the experience.Journey Mapping – Breaking down customer journeys into acquisition, delivery, and retention stages.Gamification and Milestones – Using micro-wins and milestones to motivate customer progress.Strategic Box Use – Leveraging custom boxes for acquisition, onboarding, and ongoing engagement.Practical Examples – Real-life applications like 57 Hats and multi-year coaching programs.Recognition and “Jewels” – How awards and physical tokens drive retention and customer loyalty.Retention Gaps in B2B – Why businesses often overlook delivery and retention in their customer experience strategy.And much, much more...
Finally, I got around to listening to the Writer's Guild East's podcast episode on audio drama. It's from 2019 but you know, I thought I should give it a listen. It is my field, after all.This episode aimed to give writers the low down on how to get into audio drama and how to self produce. I imagine it might be helpful if you've never done this before. But one thing that popped out at me was their take on budget. They said it would generally cost $100,000 to produce a decent audio drama. And probably if you do things through all the fancy business-y channels, that may be accurate but I found it a kind of astonishing figure. I have never spent more than ten thousand dollars on a season of an audio drama.To keep reading The Cost of an Audio Drama visit the Songs for the Struggling Artist blog.This is Episode 458Song: Do Re MiImage is by Viacheslav Bublyks via UnsplashTo support this podcast:Give it 5 stars in Apple Podcasts.

Lean BPI, the Irish digital growth consultancy for SMEs and microenterprises, has announced new survey results which reveal that cost is the greatest inhibitor of digital transformation for small enterprises in Ireland. The research found that almost half (46%) of small business owners cite it as a top barrier. The research of 100 business owners in Ireland, running companies with 20 employees or fewer, was carried out by Censuswide on behalf of Lean BPI. It found that other major obstacles cited by businesses included legacy systems and cybersecurity risks (36% each) and connectivity issues (29%). The latter appears to be a significantly greater issue for organisations who are fully remote, with 37% who operate this working model saying connectivity is a barrier. Despite concerns among small enterprises regarding the cost of digital adoption, 34% admit they have not made use of any Government digital supports. However, there is strong interest, with 75% expressing a desire to learn more about them. Lean BPI is encouraging small enterprises to prioritise digital transformation and take advantage of available supports to protect themselves from external risks and increasing market competition. Concerningly, one-third (34%) of small business owners feel they are not keeping up with the pace of digital change of their rivals, indicating the importance of digital adoption in remaining competitive. In addition, small enterprises recognise the significance of digital adoption in general, with 64% agreeing digital transformation is helping their business to grow. This is evident in the research which found 38% of businesses are getting further sales and prospective leads through their social media channels. It is therefore unsurprising that 75% plan to invest more in digital over the next 12 months and 70% have a clear digital strategy for their business in place. John O'Shanahan, founder and managing director, Lean BPI, said: "Although cost is a significant factor in digital adoption, government grants can substantially ease the financial burden for small enterprises. The research suggests that inconsistent behaviour may stem from an awareness gap, with over three-quarters of small businesses eager to learn more about the supports available. "With external pressures and intensified competition at play, small enterprises risk falling behind if they fail to adapt to the digital environment. It's essential that they conduct their own research and engage with their Local Enterprise Office Network to help break down the barriers to digital adoption. Encouragingly, the majority of small business owners are already on the right path, with a clear digital strategy in place for their business. With the right supports and guidance available, small enterprises can embrace digital transformation with their arms wide open and strengthen their position within the market in spite of external challenges."

Send us a Positive Review!In this episode Val is a guest on the Join Latter Day Digest podcast & what unfolds is the very unlikely story that led to Val's and Nathan's eventual 'outlaw' status within the LDS church. Why is this so odd? Because this couple could not have been more traditionally believing for the majority of their lives--including spending most of their marriage following all of the traditional scripts of Mormonism...which in some ways worked and in other ways didn't work that well at all. Then something happened within Val & Nathan (different life-shifting changes/crises) and their paradigms changed...radically. From living traditional roles prescribed by outside 'experts' on their lives to becoming passionate advocates of finding courage, truth, and God-connection within, Val shares a journey that might offer hope to anyone out there who thinks transformation isn't possible. 00:00 Introduction and Guest Welcome00:22 Valerie's Early Life and Background02:04 Young Women's Experience in the Church04:33 Struggles with Traditional Gender Roles10:06 Mission and College Years16:25 Meeting Her Future Husband18:53 Professional Aspirations and Challenges22:01 Empathy and Helping Others24:50 The Cost of Doing the Right Thing25:22 Balancing Family and Career25:48 Struggles of a Stay-at-Home Mom27:44 Finding Joy and Autonomy29:46 Guilt and Cognitive Dissonance33:15 Pursuing a Career in Mental Health36:43 Starting a Private Practice41:10 The Birth of Latter Day Struggles Podcast43:58 Helping Others Through Faith Expansion47:05 Commitment to a Higher Calling50:43 Conclusion and Future PlansSupport the showListen, Share, Rate & Review EPISODES Friday Episodes Annual Subscription $89 Friday Episodes Monthly Subscription $10 Valerie's Support & Processing Groups Donate: Venmo or Patreon Visit our Website
