J Darrin Gross I'd like to ask you Sundip Patel, what is the BIGGEST RISK?   Sundip Patel That's a great question. Darrin, by the way, so the biggest risk that I foresee, and in our business, is the underestimating of the impact of AI and to our business and everything we do, from assessing risk, evaluating risk, to, you know, funding that risk, the entire process. So we as a company have taken some bold steps to get ahead, to understand how we can apply AI and what it will mean. As as you remember when we started the conversation, my mission was to create jobs and maintain jobs. I live with that fear today, because you're asking me, what's the biggest risk? This is the risk that keeps me awake in the middle of the night when I think that I'm underestimating the true impact of AI that's coming really fast upon us and the sweeping impact it will have across all businesses, not just mine, but even others. And right now, I'm focused on making sure mine and my employees are upskilled and ready and changing fast so we can do more with less, but at least be ahead. https://avanacapital.com/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/sundipbpatel/

In this episode, Jamie speaks with President and CEO of Coastal Community Foundation, Darrin Goss, Sr.  He describes his work as connecting people with the impulse to do good with the ability to do good. Darrin's leadership style was shaped early as an officer in the Army.  His transition into civilian life taught him the importance of finding purpose and aligning your career to pursue that purpose.  We also discussed how he successfully holds that tension line as a leader between valuing people and driving accountability, something he describes as taking courage to get right. His insights on influence leadership are excellent.  Finally, Darrin shares the importance of staying true to your values as a leader - two of his cornerstone values are faith and family.  Darrin is a deeply respected leader who is making a big impact in the communities of South Carolina through the coalitions he builds.

We mentioned it a couple times, but probably not enough: collaboration.·      Your likely an AP, but maybe you're a principal, IC, or district leader, regardless of the position you hold, leading schools is a collaborative endeavor.·      When we lose sight of that, we forfeit our greatest strengths and misplace our purpose.·      That's what I love about what we are doing with MS leaders in NC: we're magnifying the collaboration.

What if the real cause of educator burnout isn't a lack of resilience or self-care—but the workplace itself?In this powerful and thought-provoking episode, Darrin is joined by longtime friend and national thought leader Nathan Eklund, founder of Vital Network, to explore how schools can reimagine themselves as vibrant, sustainable workplaces for educators. With over 20 years in education, including a decade in the classroom and a career dedicated to improving adult work culture in schools, Nate brings deep insight into what truly moves the needle when it comes to retention, satisfaction, and sustainable leadership.This is not another episode about bubble baths and yoga. Nate and Darrin dive deep into systemic solutions—why burnout is often misunderstood, how leadership isolation contributes to turnover, and what schools and systems can do to create cultures where teachers and leaders actually want to stay.In this episode, you'll learn:✅ Why burnout is a systems issue, not an individual weakness✅ How workplace conditions—not perks—determine retention✅ The power of rethinking daily routines like staff meetings to improve morale✅ How to support multiple generations of educators under one roof✅ The overlooked burnout crisis among principals and school leaders✅ What it means to lead with the phrase: “I don't know—what do you think?”✅ How Vital Network partners with states and districts to make long-term, scalable change✅ Why the best recruitment strategy is being a place people want to workOne Big Takeaway:Listening isn't soft leadership—it's the strategic superpower of leaders who want to build trust, engagement, and longevity in their schools.Connect with Nate Eklund:

•Darrin Patterson knows it is nothing short of God's favor miraculously healed from cancer, what many consider fate and simply good fortune. As a recording artist andmusical genius, his production and song-writing gifts have opened doors for him to share the stage with gospel greats such as Karen Clark-Sheard, Fred Hammond and Tasha Page-Lockhart, to name a few. His unique sound and flavor, coupled with the anointing of God, can be compared with the likes of Tye Tribbett and Israel Houghton, reaching audiences to the core of their being long after he's taken his seat.

The group's exclusive sound and unapologetic anointing was sure to move the hearts of men and women worldwide, prompting them to seek true transformation through life in Jesus Christ. Realizing that nothing occurs by happenstance or luck, Patterson is strategically committed to reaching the nations through the ministry of music and song, bringing greater glory to God.•Since the disbandment of Darrin Patterson & Promise, he's devoted his time and efforts to his debut album, “The Road”. His lead single, “Love You Forever” hasaudiences of all ages and backgrounds raving in worship, leaving a mark that can't be erased. Fortunate to travel the nation with artists of all calibers, Patterson is well on his way to destiny fulfillment and prophecy manifestation.His mission and his mandate are clear to all who surround him: to have his unwavering passion for music and songwriting to remain full of life, love and hope—ministering to souls across borders and cultural barriers.•The Single “Love You Forever” is available on all digital outlets.•Please send Let's Talk: Gospel Music Gold an email sharing your thoughts about this show segment also if you have anysuggestions of future guests you would like to hear on the show.
