Voice123 can feel like a mystery. Is it auditions… or search? In this episode, Marc Scott talks with Nikki Schwartz (Online Casting Optimizer) about the search side of Voice123—how buyers really find talent, why clips beat compilation demos, and how to keyword/tag your samples so you show up for the work you want. You'll hear: The two Voice123 algorithms (auditions vs. search) Why variety of samples matters more than sheer volume How to write your “About” section so it actually helps you get found Why keyword stuffing backfires and what to do instead How Nikki uses data and AI to make optimization easier If you're spending money on Voice123, this is how you make that investment pay off.

What if the secret to understanding anyone—your teenage daughter, your impossible boss, that friend who keeps making the same relationship mistakes—wasn't about reading their mind, but about recognizing the developmental lens through which they see reality? What if most of our communication failures stem from a simple error: assuming everyone makes meaning the same way we do? In this conversation, Keith Martin-Smith and Alexander Love dive deep into Terry O'Fallon's revolutionary Stages model, a developmental framework that cuts through the noise of content to reveal the underlying structure of how consciousness evolves. Unlike the rigid hierarchies that plague most developmental theories, this approach treats growth as an unbroken fabric of becoming — twelve developmental waves flowing across three distinct tiers of reality perception. Alexander's three-question methodology can help pinpoint someone's developmental range in real-time. First: What world can they actually see? Someone operating from concrete thinking literally cannot perceive the systemic forces that are obvious to someone with subtle awareness. Second: Are they exploring individual identity or collective belonging? This reveals whether they're in the first two stages of any tier (developing the individual) or the second two stages (developing the collective). Third: What's their learning preference — receptive, active, reciprocal, or interpenetrative? This final question narrows twelve possibilities down to one. The conversation illuminates how this precision serves empathy rather than evaluation. When we recognize that a child adopting progressive values through rule-based thinking will enforce inclusivity with the same rigid authoritarianism they learned at home, we stop expecting postmodern sophistication from concrete cognition. When we understand that someone at 4.0 (green) can see systemic oppression but is still "had by" the system they're critiquing, we can appreciate both their insights and their limitations without condescension. Alexander's exploration of shadow and projection dynamics reveals another layer: how 4.0 can spot others' projections but remains blind to their own, while 4.5 begins the difficult work of recognizing their own shadow upon reflection. This isn't just developmental theory—it's practical wisdom for navigating the projection-heavy landscape of contemporary culture. Perhaps most importantly, they demonstrate how development unfolds not as a linear climb but as a fluid dance between multiple stages within any given conversation. A healthy person at any level naturally draws from earlier developmental waves when appropriate—using first-person perspective to open a door, concrete thinking to follow traffic rules, systemic awareness to understand cultural patterns. The goal isn't to transcend our humanity but to discover its full spectrum. Their discussion of real-world examples—from diversity and inclusion debates to parenting challenges—shows how the same content can emerge from radically different developmental structures, and why meeting people where they are developmentally creates the conditions for genuine growth rather than defensive reactivity. This isn't another framework for ranking consciousness. It's a tool for recognizing the magnificent complexity of human meaning-making, and for learning to love people into wholeness rather than arguing them into agreement. When we stop trying to convince others to see through our developmental lens and start learning to see through theirs, something remarkable becomes possible: genuine understanding across the beautiful diversity of human consciousness.

What if the key to solving urban poverty isn't creating new programs, but matching proven solutions with communities that need them most? Ali Knight, CEO of GreenLight Fund, joins us to discuss a revolutionary approach that's quietly transformed cities across America for two decades. From his journey as a “latchkey kid” in New York City to leading a national organization that's invested over $40 million in community solutions, Ali reveals how patience and discipline created lasting change.  That ambitious vision is attracting mayors, nonprofit leaders, and funders nationwide who are hungry for solutions that actually work—and it's reshaping how philanthropy approaches urban poverty one city at a time. It's Ali Knight of the GreenLight Fund on The Business of Giving.

Our guest in this episode is Jennifer K. Hill, an exited founder and tech CEO who is now cracking the code of human connection through her company, OptiMatch. Her mission was born from what she calls "survival," a personal journey to understand herself after realising she was the "common denominator" in her own relational breakdowns.In our wonderful chat, Jennifer shares her master blueprint for building high-trust relationships, the "Golden Triangle of Connection," and provides an arsenal of practical tools for emotional resilience. Key points discussed include:* True connection begins with yourself; you're the common denominator in all of your relationships.* Understand others' core motivations to speak a language they can hear, preventing communication breakdowns.* Use practical tools to regulate your nervous system, allowing your adult self to lead, not your inner child.Listen to the podcast to find out more.Innovabiz Substack is a reader-supported publication.

Hill to the InnovaBuzz podcast, an exited founder and tech CEO who is now on a mission to crack the code of human connection. Her journey is a fascinating one, not born from a lofty academic theory, but forged in the fires of personal experience. As Jennifer so candidly shared, her deep dive into the mechanics of trust and relationships began as an act of pure "survival."What unfolded was a powerful conversation about her master blueprint for connection, a framework she calls the Golden Triangle. It's a roadmap that starts in the one place many of us are afraid to look: ourselves. Jennifer's story is a profound reminder that before we can build bridges to others or to a greater purpose, we must first learn to navigate our own inner landscape with courage and compassion.The Common Denominator: Your First and Most Important RelationshipOne of the most powerful moments in our chat was when Jennifer described her ultimate "light bulb" moment. After years of broken relationships and communication breakdowns in every area of her life, she finally asked the hard question and came to a stunningly simple conclusion: "The common denominator? Me." That single realisation sparked a two-decade journey inward and became the bedrock of her work.This is the first corner of her Golden Triangle: a deep, unwavering connection to self. Jennifer argues that without this foundation, we will always feel a void, leaving us to seek validation and energy from others. True intimacy with our partners, our teams, and our purpose can only be built once we've done the deep work of understanding our own motivations, triggers, and blind spots.Are You a Leche or an Apple? Speaking a Language Others Can HearOnce we begin to understand ourselves, we can start to truly understand others. Jennifer has translated her intuitive gift for reading people into a remarkable technology called OptiMatch, which identifies our primary motivators using memorable fruit archetypes. Are you a "Leche," driven by achievement and needing information in three quick bullet points? Or are you an "Apple," who thrives on data and needs to see all fifty points of research?These differences aren't a matter of someone being difficult or "misbehaving;" it's simply about learning to "speak each other's language." Jennifer shared a brilliant example of two co-founders who were struggling until they realised this. By learning to speak into the other person's listening, they transformed their dynamic from one of friction to one of flow, a lesson that applies to every boardroom and every family dinner table.The Unseen Saboteur: Why You Need to Master "Transition Time"Sometimes the biggest breakdowns come from the smallest misunderstandings. Jennifer shared a deeply personal story about "transition time," a concept she learned from her mentor, Alison Armstrong. She described how her ex-husband would come home from work and need a period to decompress, a need she, in her excitement to connect, would completely miss. His silence felt like a rejection, leading her to become "passive aggressive" and withhold affection.This dynamic is a silent saboteur in countless relationships. Recognising that some people, regardless of gender, need time to transition between tasks or environments is a simple but revolutionary act of empathy. It's about giving grace and understanding that someone's need for a quiet moment isn't a personal slight, but a fundamental aspect of how they're wired.Don't Burn the House Down: Practical Tools for Taming Your AmygdalaWhen we feel slighted or triggered, our primitive brain, the amygdala, takes over. As Jennifer so vividly put it, in those moments of anger, she was ready to "dissolve the company, light the thing on fire and burn everything to the ground." To avoid this, we need practical tools to regulate our nervous system and get our rational brain back online, allowing us to be responsive instead of reactive.Jennifer has an arsenal of over 180 of these tools, and she shared a few of her favourites, from HeartMath's heart-focused breathing to the simple yet profound questions of the Sedona Method. These aren't complex, time-consuming practices; they are in-the-moment techniques you can use with your eyes open during a tense meeting to quiet the alarm bells in your brain and choose a more constructive path.The Inner Child Running the BoardroomSo why do we get triggered in the first place? Jennifer offered a stunningly clear explanation: most of the time, our conflicts are not being waged by our adult selves. Instead, "we are a 4-year-old and a 3-year-old being like, you can't make me, you suck!" It's our unhealed inner children, desperate for love and acceptance, who are running the show and causing the chaos.The antidote is what she calls "Inner Child Work." This is the secret sauce: learning to talk to that little one within you, giving yourself the love, safety, and acceptance you've been trying to get from everyone else. When you can do that, you stop taking that neediness into your relationships, and your competent, 44-year-old self can finally run the meeting.Humanizing Our Future: A Pragmatic Optimist's Take on AIOur conversation fittingly concluded by looking at the future of connection in the age of technology. As a "pragmatic optimist," Jennifer sees a powerful opportunity to "humanize AI" by always putting the "human first, tech second." She believes that far from replacing us, AI can be an incredible ally on our journey of self-discovery.Imagine having a companion you can talk to without any fear of judgment, a tool that can help you understand your own patterns and reflect on your feelings in a completely safe space. When we approach it with intention, technology doesn't have to be a force for disconnection; it can become one of the most powerful tools we have for building a deeper relationship with ourselves.In Summary: Jennifer K. Hill provides a masterclass in building a more connected life, starting from the inside out. Her message is clear: when we have the courage to see ourselves as the common denominator, learn to speak the language of others, and do the work to heal our inner child, we can transform every relationship we have—with ourselves, each other, and our purpose in the world.The Buzz - Our Innovation RoundHere are Jennifer's answers to the questions of our innovation round.

The host discusses the results of a political and legal battle for access to the federal government's databases, revealing what was hidden within the Social Security and Treasury records. The host describes the initial conflict between the newly appointed Treasury Secretary and career bureaucrats who refused to hand over passwords to the payment systems. The hosts highlight the "mind-blowing" findings, including over 275,000 illegal immigrants receiving Social Security checks, with many checks being mailed to people who have already left the country. Additionally, they reveal that 12.4 million Social Security numbers belong to individuals listed as being over 120 years old, with over 135,000 being over 160 years old. The host connects this fraud to a larger political strategy, arguing that the previous administration deliberately enabled this system to artificially inflate census numbers for redistricting and to secure future votes. The discussion concludes by connecting the findings to the resignation of key bureaucrats and the ongoing efforts to expose corruption within federal agencies.

Podcast Notes   Episode 475 Cracking the Code of Client Growth, with Adam Witmer Host: Brian Miller, PCC Guest: Adam Witmer Date: July 24, 2025 In this episode, Brian sits down with business strategist Adam Witmer to explore the foundations of creating a successful business strategy. From Adam's early roots in music and discovering a passion for business to the development of his “Buyer's Journey” framework (outlined in his upcoming book The Buyer-Centric Small Business), this conversation offers a thoughtful and highly practical breakdown of how small businesses can attract, convert, and retain customers. At the heart of the discussion is the FEEL Framework—Find it, Experience it, Engage it, Love it—which maps out the essential stages of turning a stranger into a raving fan. Key Highlights: Adam Witmer's Origin Story: Transitioned from a music major to a business strategist by discovering his love for the operational and strategic side of music and band promotion. Importance of Strategy: Many entrepreneurs launch businesses on passion alone, but Adam emphasizes the need for a clear, structured business strategy. The FEEL Framework: A four-stage model—Find It, Experience It, Engage It, Love It—to guide prospects through a buyer journey. Hope Marketing vs. Intentional Marketing: Businesses often rely on hope ("Hope people find us"), but Adam outlines six practical entry points for customer discovery. Customer Conversion & Loyalty: Offering experiences and small engagement products helps build trust and leads to long-term loyalty and advocacy. Takeaways: Find It – Discovery Is Everything If people can't find you, they can't buy from you. Adam breaks down six categories of entry points—from online and referrals to events and PR—encouraging business owners to stop relying on "hope marketing." Experience It – Give Them a Taste Just like food samples at a mall food court, giving potential customers a way to experience your offering (e.g., sample coaching sessions) helps them build trust and see your value firsthand. Engage It – Start Small to Go Big Early engagement doesn't need to be a big commitment. Entry-level products or services allow prospects to get comfortable before buying into larger offerings. Love It – Build Raving Fans Once trust is established, provide quality, perks, and consistent value to create loyal customers who not only return but also refer others. Strategy Over Serendipity Business success isn't just about being good at what you do—it's about designing the buyer journey intentionally so that prospects are guided every step of the way.   Find out more about Adam and what he has to offer, including your FREE resources - visit https://www.businessstrategyschool.com/coach Stay Connected: Website: coachapproachministries.org Email: info@coachapproachministries.org LinkedIn: http://www.linkedin.com/company/coach-approach-ministries Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/coach.approach.ministries Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@coachapproachministries7538 Follow us on social media for updates and resources!

Hormones are wild, especially when you realize they're not just about how much you have, but how your body uses and processes them behind the scenes. That's what hormone metabolite testing helps uncover, and honestly, it's a game-changer. I'm sitting down with Dr. Liz Bartman, an incredible Naturopathic Doctor with a deep background in hormone science, to talk about how we can actually test our hormones in a meaningful way and what those results are really telling us. We chat about the different ways to test—blood, saliva, urine—and why each one tells a slightly different story. Dr. Liz also shares what happens to our hormones during menopause (hint: it's not all doom and gloom) and why cholesterol is actually essential for hormone production. One of the most eye-opening parts? The way our bodies detox estrogen and what certain metabolites might be saying about our long-term health risks, like breast cancer. If you've ever felt like your labs weren't giving you the full picture, this one's for you. Dr. Liz brings a refreshingly smart, grounded approach to hormone health. Oh, and speaking of refreshing… I've been sipping on my new favorite thing lately: Mighty Maca Mango! It's the same powerful superfood blend you know and love, now with a zesty mango twist—perfect over ice or made into popsicles. You can grab it over at dranna.com.

Most people are now familiar with the fire risks associated with the batteries used in e-bikes and scooters, devices that have tragically contributed to 34 fire related deaths in New York City since 2021, as of the date of publication.

In this episode, Battalion Chief Jason Cascone hosts a comprehensive discussion with FDNY Chief of Safety James Canty, and Hazmat Battalion Chiefs Ray Coyle and Matt Quinn about why lithium-ion batteries can be volatile, how to safely operate at fires involving them, and mitigating them on the fireground.
